Make a Conversation Heart Valentine Stampin’ Up! Style

Conversation Hearts aka Sweethearts Candy have been a Valentine staple for as long as I can remember.  According to Wikipedia, they have been around since 1901! They are also  the #1 top selling candy in 19 states according to WAND17.  CLICK HERE to see if your state picks conversation hearts. Making a stack of Valentines that feature a paper version of the popular Conversation Heart or Sweethearts Candy is easy to do. I am going to share with you how to create your own stack of Valentines featuring a fun, paper Conversation Heart.

Tools & Supply List for Your Conversation Heart Valentine Stack

This is a tool and supply list with quick links for your shopping convenience. The Party Pandas Sale-a-bration stamp set was used to create the Conversation Heart Valentine and can be earned for FREE with $50 order! To learn more about Sale-a-bration and how to get this set for free – CLICK HERE.

Please note that I did not add clear blocks as the assumption is made that if you choose the clear mount stamp set, you already have clear blocks. If you do not know the difference between clear mount and wood mount please contact me and I will be happy to help you.

Also, I have listed two choices of adhesive; Snail Adhesive or Multipurpose Glue. Either of them will work, I just happen to prefer the Snail Adhesive as it is less messy.

Valentine Instructions (Video Below!)

  1. Stamp the Love You sentiment (from Party Pandas stamp set) on Powder Pink card stock in Melon Mambo ink and then die cut around it using the small, narrow heart from Sweet & Sassy Framelits (set this aside heart for later)
  2. Die cut a 1 7/8″ circle from the Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (set this aside for later)
  3. Cut a 2″ x 4″ piece of paper from the Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper.
  4. Adhere the 2″ x 4″ Painted with Love paper piece to the front of a Whisper White Narrow Note card.
  5. Now adhere the 1 7/8″ Painted with Love circle to the center of the paper on  the Whisper White Narrow Note card.
  6. Attach a Stampin’ Dimensional to the back of the Conversation Heart  and adhere to the center of the circle on the front of the card.

To make a stack of Valentine’s, pre-cut and pre-stamp for the desired number of Valentine’s (tip: there are 20 Whisper White Narrow Note cards in a package), then assemble the cards. Here are some suggested ways to use your Conversation Heart Valentines to give gifts to your Valentines:

  • Insert a Small Flat Heart Lollipop (best for hand delivery)
  • Gift a bookmark
  • Additionally, the Narrow Note cards are the perfect size for gift cards!

Optional:

To make a liner for your envelope flap, die cut a 2 1/8″ circle from coordinating Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper and adhere to the envelope flap.
