Even though I gave up making my own Christmas cards last year, I’m still going strong in the Valentine-making department. Last year, I did mostly store-bought cards with handmade garlands but this year, I made my cards again.
I love a good pun, and I wanted to use my cat template, so I came up with these cat-themed cards for my cat-fan friends. Each one ended up being a little bit different because I was spending out some Valentine papers from yesteryear. I started with a good pun–You’re the cat’s meow!–and typed it up on Paper Source 4-bar heart cards. Then I stamped on a cat and a heart. I had tiny hearts punched out of leftover paper that I glued on, along with vintage red sequins (using my favorite glue pen).
Each card ended up being a little bit different (and each card had varying amounts of Presley fur and coffee spills.)
The non-cat people got the same heart cards stamped with something tea or coffee related…slightly less exciting than cat puns.
Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope your day is filled with love and pink mail!
