A Chocolate Lover’s Card (No Calories Included!)

Oh my goodness, I am so excited to share this chocolate card!
I saw this idea on Pinterest many years ago. Every single year, I say, “This is the year I’m going to make it for Valentine’s.” Well… Valentine’s is next week (or the week after 😉), and it still wasn’t done.

Then I was at the store. I was looking at a Hershey’s chocolate bar. It hit me — I need to go home and make that card!

Let’s talk about Wow Bow Fold – Big WOW, Super Easy!
For today’s project, I’m using the Made with Love Designer Series Paper. This is for this very popular fold. I now officially call it the Wow Bow. When I first shared this fold, it didn’t have a name, and I kept getting asked what it was called. Since it resembles a bow and has such a wow factor, the name finally stuck!

At first glance, this card looks intense to make, but I promise—it’s super easy.

Swing Cards With the Love Notes Designer Paper

For today’s blog post, I’m sharing two swing card layouts: a portrait version and a landscape version.

The focus of these cards is the Love Notes, making them perfect for Valentine’s Day. However, as you can see, I didn’t add a specific Valentine’s greeting. That means these cards can easily be used for other occasions too—birthdays, thank you cards, just because, and more.
