The other night, I was playing around with some non-traditional ideas for Valentine's Day cards.
I came up with these two cards using Kraft cardstock, my favorite card base. I was going for a denim look above.
Below, you'll see I combined the flower stamp image with the heart, creating my own custom-made image. This is easy to do with Stampin' Write Markers.
Both cards use the stamp set "Hello Again". This set is versatile, cute, and best of all - affordable.
For only $12.95, you get 5 adorable images.
Hello Again - Item #113780, $12.95

Ooh, Kris, what cool cards! I just ordered my first pack of Kraft paper and I wasn't exactly sure why. But now, as always, you've inspired me and I can't wait for it to get here. The blues and the reds look so cool against the Kraft. I absolutely love your style of cardmaking!

I like the denim look! It's what I thought of when I first saw the card! Cool, would be great for a guy. (or gal!)

Thanks for nontraditional ideas. I just bought some Kraft paper, and I wanted some new ideas for Valentine's cards. This was a lot of help.
