Vintage Valentine Card with Yan

Hello crafty friends!! This is Yan on the Sunny Studio blog today.  Are you ready for something sweet? I’m beyond excited to share my Vintage Valentine Stamp Set card today - I added a little thoughtful touch that might just give you a new way to share your heartfelt words.

First, I stamped these charming vintage - inspired images with VersaFine Clair Ink-Pinecone on watercolor paper. Then I brought them to life with watercolors, keeping that soft, nostalgic vibe that matches the Vintage Valentine theme perfectly. Once everything was completely dry, I used the Vintage Valentine Dies to cut them out - crisp, clean and ready for the fun part!

I started by working on the background! I chose a lovely pattern from Polka-Dot Parade Paper Pad, and to keep that same nostalgic touch, I die-cut a stitched scalloped oval shape from white cardstock using Scalloped Oval Mat 3 Dies. The soft tones and classic shape add such a cozy, vintage feel to the design.

Next, I hand-cut a small piece of white cardstock measuring about 3.4cmX10cm and stamped a sweet message on it - a little details that makes your card even more meaningful and heartfelt.

Then comes the fun little twist! I carefully hand-cut a small 3.6cm opening on both the white oval panel and the colored typewriter image. This created the perfect spot to slide in the tiny message strip I stamped earlier - just like a real note coming out of the typewriter!

Finally, I adhered everything onto the card base using foam tape for a bit dimension. Now your sweet words can be tucked inside, giving someone you love a little surprise when they take a closer look - just like in the photos below.

Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing this little crafty moment with me! I hope you enjoyed seeing how this card came together, and maybe even got a few ideas to add your own special touches.
