Using the Calico Cottage Young Love digital images<\/a> I’ll show you\u00a0How to Make the Young Love ATC’s. These are great Valentine ATC’s that you can give out to friends or send in a mail swap. I plan to give these out at an event to a few friends.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Beginning January I have become a Design Team member for Calico Cottage. Being able to use her images for art projects is so much fun! The Young Love digital images I knew would be perfect for little Valentine ATC’s.<\/h5>\n

For today’s project I used these items in addition to Calico Cottages images:<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

A Happy Valentine’s Day Stamp – unknown maker. I’ve had this stamp for many years and I’m not sure where it came from. It may be a stamp that I got in a grab bag at a stamp convention or one that was made for me years ago.<\/p>\n

Brutus Monroe Detail Ink – Raven<\/a> was used to stamp the Happy Valentine’s Day phrase. I love this ink as it dries fast and it is waterproof. Great for when I want to watercolor or spray mists over the top.<\/p>\n

Tim Holtz Distressed Ink – Picked Raspberry. The distressed ink was used around all of the images and over the Happy Valentines’s Day phrase.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

From the 7 Gypsies Trousseau Stamp set that has been discontinued I used the phrase “from my heart”. This was embossed in gold using Brutus Monroe Embossing Ink<\/a> and gold detail embossing powder.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Little Heart stamps are from Brutus Monroe Stamp Club<\/a> – Little Monster for January 2017. I’m loving this little set with all the stamps so much can be done.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite items to use is Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists on this project I used Viva Pink (discontinued but the same as Vintage Pink<\/a>) and Cork<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

For a final touch a small self adhesive rhinestones from Paper Studios were used. I just love adding a little bling when I can.<\/p>\n
