A Valentine for my Dear Daughter Featuring Taylored Expressions Heart of Hearts Stencils and Clearly Besotted It's a Celebration Stamp Set

I used my Taylored Expressions Heart of Hearts stencils and Clearly Besotted It's a Celebration stamp to create this valentine for my dear daughter, Katie.  This is her last Valentine's Day away from home as she'll graduate from college in May.  I wanted to send this card to brighten her day.  The little hamster is fussy cut after coloring with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers.  That little guy looks just like Katie's hamster, Jasper.  He's helping me send hugs and kisses to my daughter.

Hoping your Valentine's Day is filled with both hugs and kisses!

An I Love You Hamster Valentine

Whoops.  I forgot to share this card I made for my daughter.  She has a dwarf hamster pet whose name is J-Knaps and whom I call Chubbie.  This makes her partial to hamsters and you might have seen her Christmas cards using Waffle Flowers Winter Hamsters stamp and die set.  I recently acquired the Clearly Besotted It's a Celebration stamp set which includes hamsters for a wide variety of celebrations.

This little guy hugging a heart was so perfect that I quickly colored and fussy cut him out to add to some stamped and die cut embellishments stamped with Distress Oxide inks using my Papertrey Ink You Have My Heart stamps and dies.  Guess that is one of my go-to Valentine's Day stamp sets.

So cute, but mostly to remind her we love her.
