You're My Queen Of Hearts Valentine Card

Hello crafty friends! Today I'm sharing my vintage Valentine card that features Honey Bee Stamps' beautiful Queen of Hearts stamp set. This set is made from red rubber and I totally love the crisp stamped image you get! You can also stamp the entire piece all at one time!

First I worked on my stenciled background. I inked up a 4" x 5-¼" piece of white cardstock with three pink Distress Oxide Ink colors. For my ombre pattern I used Picked Raspberry, Kitsch Flamingo, and Spun Sugar.

After using my heat tool to dry the ink a bit, I placed one of the two Scattered Hearts stencil over the inked panel. I added Picked Raspberry Oxide ink through the stencil with an ink blending brush.

Before I added the texture paste with the second stencil, I stamped the four hearts in the Queen of Hearts set with the pink Distress Oxides randomly over the panel.

Next I placed the second Scattered Hearts stencil over the panel. Then I added some pretty Frosted Petal Glacier Paste through the stencil with a palette knife. I carefully removed the stencil and set piece aside to dry.

Next I stamped the Queen of Hearts girl with Intense Black ink onto white cardstock. (Did you know that the Queen of Hearts set is made so you can use all of the images separately?) Next I colored her with my Copic markers. I used these colors:

  • dress: C5, C3, C1, C00
  • parasol & other pink elements: R39, RV25, RV06, RV04, RV02, RV10, RV00
  • hair: E59, E57, E55
  • leaves/grass: G17, G25
  • skin: E11, E51, E50

I used glue to adhere the dry stenciled panel to an A2 folded card base.

Next I cut out the Queen of Hearts with the coordinating Honey Cut. I added foam dots to the back to pop it up on the A2 card.

I stamped extra hearts from the Queen of Hearts with Picked Raspberry Oxide ink and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I used foam squares to adhere them to the card.

The sentiment is also another separate stamp in the Queen of Hearts stamp set. It is stamped with black ink and cut out with the coordinating die.

Since I was thinking her pretty white dress would have a sparkly overlay in real life, I used a clear glitter pen to add lots of sparkles on her dress!
