Cuttin' & Stampin' challenge #5 Valentines





Good morning everyone and welcome to my Cuttin' & Stampin' Design Team Challenge  post.
Valentine's Day:  using~ Authentique Crush & Lawn Fawn Bee Mine stamp & sequins, listed below






Here now are the cards I made using these wonderful products...


for the first card, I stamped onto the 6x6 piece of paper from the Authentique paper pack, then used some of the journaling paper and some Pretty blue ribbon and light blue bling.  I also used some of the flower sequins  and made a flower for the bee:)

Card #2.. I decided to go with the journal cards and hearts from the stamp set, some checkered ribbon and the sequins aswell as the sequins again.  love the red and black...works great for valentines. 

Hope you like my cards....for any of the products and more go here
