Hello friends! I have a slimline Valentine card to share with you today featuring the Hogs & Kisses Stamp Set from Sunny Studio Stamps. I love how you can use this cute set for both winter scenes as well as a variety of other seasons. I combined this set with the Bold Balloons Stamp Set for a fun-filled scene.

To start my card, I first trimmed a piece of Neenah Solar White Card Stock to 3.5″ x 8.5″ and blended it with Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. I splattered this blending with water using a #4 paint brush and then added some diluted pink and white watercolor paints for added interest.

I trimmed a few pieces of white card stock to 3.5″ x various heights and cut three pieces using the Fluffy Clouds Border Dies. I adhered these to the bottom portion of my card and then stamped my sentiment onto the lower right side of the front cloud before adding it to my card with some 3D Foam Adhesive Tape.

For my little pig, I stamped him/her with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto another piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and colored them with Copic Sketch Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut it out. I used some Altenew Inks to stamp my balloons. (Inks Used: Altenew Tea Party Mini Cube Set, Red Sunset Mini Cube Set, and the Cherry Blossom Mini Cube Set.) Lastly, I added some sparkly silver baker’s twine for my balloon strings.

Thanks for stopping by! If you liked this card and want some more crafty inspiration, please feel free to check out my INSTAGRAM feed!
