Hidden Message Valentine Cards with True Blue Florals & Made With Love

February 3, 2026February 3, 2026 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ Leave a comment

Did you play along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’? Well, some things did not go as planned; however, I am excited to share my finished cards. I hope I fixed the measurements before anyone else cut their paper. (Trust me, enough paper was harmed in the making of this fun fold by me!!!) The funny thing is I have made this style card before but I wanted to try something a little different this time (of course I did!!!). I’ve seen several versions of this style card and I really liked how Connie Stewart made it with the layers that look like they extend. It gives the illusion it is just a regular card and makes it more of a surprise when you open it! Anyway, I tweaked her measurements for what I wanted and if you followed the clues you would have created a Hidden Message Fun Fold Card similar to these.
Mystery Solved!

While this card could easily be used for many occasions, I have a friend who absolutely loves blue so of course I had to make her a blue valentine. I love how the Branching Out Dies frame the sentiment here as well as the “hidden message”.

This card stands for display and I love how you can add a personal message that is hidden inside. I fussy cut some of the flowers that were on the edge of the DSP to decorate my envelope to coordinate.

Timeless Plaid Masculine Cards

February 9, 2025February 9, 2025 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 9 Comments

Happy Super Bowl Sunday! Do you have a favorite football team or do you watch the game for the halftime show and/or the commercials? I know my friend Rosanne is cheering for the Eagles (and I often lose when I bet against her); however, I am hoping for the Chiefs to win 3 in a row! (I like the idea of history being made!) Who do you want to win? Leave a comment below and I will pick a random winner to receive one of today’s cards.

Masculine cards are usually a struggle for me; however, the new Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper and a simple card sketch made creating these cards quick & easy! I have 3 cards to share with you today (in honor of the Chiefs 3rd Super Bowl WIN in a row! LOL)
