Hi there sweet friends! The thing about Valentines Day cards is that I think we often make the card we’d love to receive . . . call me guilty. No worries about that and even though pink and white, draped with flowers, lace and bows and handing it over to a man – works . . . today I wanted to do something different. I wanted to make a Valentines Day card that would work just as well for an anniversary, and I wanted to work with something other then pink, white and red. Recently I found lovelies from Quietfire Design in my mailbox and all the sentiments had to do with love, just in time for Valentines Day!! BUT, since these don’t say Valentines Day specifically, I do think they will work all year around and fit quite neatly into the ‘Anniversary’ and ‘In Love’ categories in my stash. So here’s a card that could go for either using a sentiment called The Future is Uncertain.
I’m using the new Spellbinders Floral Affair, Spellbinders Reflection, and Spellbinders Classic Ovals SM. I opted for silver and navy because every once in a while I have to give cream and gold a rest :-)
| CRAFT SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Quietfire Design, The Future is Uncertain Craft Paper: Bazzill, The Fine Touch, Silver Poster Board, Coredinations Ink: Clear Snap – Chianti Accessories: Spellbinders Floral Affair, Spellbinder Reflection, Spellbinders Classic Ovals SM, Satin Ribbon, Prima Pearls, Recollection Pearls, clear embossing powder |
Hope your day is spectacular! Thanks for stopping by, and I’ll see you soon.
Question Parking Lot:
Several have asked which set the heart on the bow came from – it’s the smallest in the Spellbinders Floral Affair set :-)
Gorgeous Becca!!
Beautiful card as always! Navy is my favorite color and it goes so well with silver. Where did the little heart come from that’s on the ribbon?
As always, it just is so awesome. Love the colors and that gleaming silver against the dark blue. Loving these new S/B – so intricate & filigreed..very Victorian and glamorous. That sentiment is so pretty and would be versatile for many occasions. TFS & Hugs. Hope your New Year has gotten off to a good start, and the rest of it will be fabulous for you.
I’m running out of adjectives!!
What a lovely lovely card!
Thanks!!!!!!
Gorgeous creation, beautifully done so elegant xx
Gorgeous card. Both the stamp and die are fabulous. More to add to my wish list.
LOVELY BECCA!!! I haven’t even started my Valentines YET! LOL LOTS OF WORK TO BE DONE, once I receive my new Valentines Stamps in the mail!! LOOOOVE the silver & the navy & the sentiment is lovely as well! ;)
Beautiful card. Navy and silver are one of my favorite colors to use. I too, see many uses for this stamp. Love the new Spellbinders dies. So many wants and so little money.
Oh my, my Becca. You outdid yourself, girl. LOVE the navy and silver and really have never given that a thought but I like it alot, especially for a masculine card ~ would definitely work for me. Those dies are fabulous too!!
Bless you and
Hugs

A Valentine card that couldn’t be lovelier!
This is so pretty! Really love the navy with the little pops of red! Your designs are always amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Pure Elegance!
wow, this is gorgeous Becca. Love the die and sentiment.
Gorgeous!
I love this – but then, I’m a tad prejudiced – that’s my signature line that Suzanne turned into rubber, and I love how gorgeous it turned out. I like the silver with navy – have done that with sympathy cards, but hadn’t put it together like this for a guy card for Valentine’s Day. It’s really beautiful, Becca – thanks!
Glad you got your new Quietfire Design stamps. this one is my new fav and your setting for it is lovely.
thanks!
hello Becca, I have just recently found your work and I really love it. this card is so so lovely. I have a question. could you please tell me what the red heart is and what it is made of (i’m talking about the small heart with the 3 pearls on it) I can see those hearts embellishing a lot of my cards. you have really inspired me. thank you so much for sharing your work. , love, treen
The navy & silver make for a beautiful card. I, too, am a gold loving girl and I have to admit the filigree is stunning in silver. Thank you for your continued inspiration!!!
GORGEOUS!!!! love the silver on the blue!!
Hello to my sister in Christ, I just want to say how beautiful is the Valentine card. For me this is the most perfect card to give to the love of my life My husband of almost forty one years. I shall be making a card for him this year, and I just hope it touches his heart this this one has touched mine. Blessings to you from Ros Hodgkins over in Cambridgeshire England. X Ros
Very, very pretty. Lovely colour combination and the Quietfire sentiment is very precious.
How unusual. Love the colour combo and that dinky red heart is so cute.
Hello Becca
The card today is so beautiful!
I have the Floral Die set, and have been wondering what to do with little heart!
It looks so good on Ribbon..I think I will try this !
I love the Font on the sentiment too!
Take care
love Marg
WOUW WOUW WOUW this is soooo spectacular work Becca, and I too is almost out of words to descrbe how beautiful I really think your work is, and this is definitely beautiful too, and sooo perfect for a male companion, and also for many girls. It´s absolut stunning and oooh so elegant. I really love this one.
The navy and silver works for me Becca, it makes a lovely Valentine and I feel funny about giving my DH a pink, flowery card. I might rework my idea for his card into navy.
Hello Becca,
You have created a beautiful card, and the sentiment is so right. I’ll have to source these stamps in the UK xx
Such a stunning card, Becca. You do it every time!
Hugs

Absolutely stunning card Becca, this sentiment is beautiful, the lay out and the color combination really showcases it perfectly, thank you for sharing.
This is so very pretty, Becca.
Beautiful Becca. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
Very elegant Becca.
Lovely color combo, I do the same thing, go for a card I would love to receive!
Becca, this card is pure elegance. But I’m wondering, as Treen did in an earlier post, about the mauve heart that adorns the bow on the card. I did not recognize it in your product list, and am curious as to where it came from and what it is called???
So gorgeous, Becca!
Beautiful!!! What a wonderful inspiration your work is!! This will help me break from the routine pink/red/white for Valentine’s. You card is ever so much more elegant and romantic.
Beautiful card! I love the sentiment – so true! Thanks for all your inspiring posts.
OMGoodness, that is so beautiful. And I can see it as a Wedding card. Saved it for CASE-ing at a later date. Thanks.
Wow, wow , wow!!
Becca this is fab, love the colours and design,

Beautiful card! I love the silver against the dark blue. Stunning. I pinned.
Hi Becca. I love this gorgeous card. It is always so good to see Valentines/Wedding etc cards in colours other than red or pink. Take care.
Hi Becca, this card is so beautiful. I have my birthday on the 13th February. Then valentines day , then our wedding anniversary on the 29th February, so we celebrate it on the 28th this year. So you have inspired me as usual to make a different card for my hubby this year, was thinking of the normal red but have changed my mind to the lovely blue. Thanks so much for all your inspiration. God bless you.
Lots of love

Beautiful card. Love the blue and silver. The vibe I get from it is heavenly.
Becca – I am so amazingly amazed at your gift for creating such wonderful cards. I fell in love with the 1 box 3 occasions – and hurried to order the dies. They finally arrived and I can’t wait to see if I can recreate your projects. I am so stoked! Thank you for sharing the wonderful Gift God has given to you. Keep creating! (and yes I bought your bow maker also) Thank you for simplifying my life
What a fabulous Valentine card. In this case ELEGANCE is spelled with all capital letters.It may be different but it is definitely any treasure. – Jim
Your cards are so inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
Lovely! Have to pull out my shiny paper! Thanks for the inspiration, Becca!
