Vintage Valentines

When I first saw this SSS set Quite the Pear, I immediately thought of vintage children's valentines.  I combined these adorable images with some old and new HA stamps as well.  I like the way they turned out, and I will be entering them in the current SSS Wednesday Challenge.  This challenge is "Something New", and I am using my new stamps to create a vintage look. I am also entering my cards in the current a2z Scrapbook Challenge, again to use "Something New."  I am using my new HA stamp set, Stamp and Cut Hearts.  I think they have a vintage feel as well.




With this third card, I used two HA stamps Tiny Heart Background and Engraved Fruits and kissed them to create the heart pear.

Supplies:
Paper:  HA cards, PTI, Bazzill and scraps
Ink:  Versafine, HA and Memento
Stamps:  SSS and HA
Dies/Punches:  SSS, HA and Sizzix
Other:  Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol
