New for Valentine’s Day (or maybe you just love pink)
 First, New Collage Sheets by Amber Gibbs
Amber Gibbs has designed this beautiful "Valentine Bird Hearts" sheet (see sheet at right and enlargement at left). Lovely collages ready to use "as is" or to further embellish.
Another new sheet by Amber is of sepia-toned vintage photos of Cowgirls (in the background of the image at right).
Lots (of Varied) Valentine’s Day Goodies
- "Hey Sugar" Paper Set & Die-Cut Buttons
The paper set has three double-sided 12" x 12" heavy 65# sheets. Both options use Valentine's Day icons in a light/bright/fun way, like a pattern made of cupid's arrows.
- Amy Butler Fabric Brads & Felt Flowers
The fabric brads feel a little like silk kimono fabric designs. The felt flower stickers each have 3 or more layers of stacked felt and include stitching, rhinestones and/or pearls.
 - Valentine Embellishment Jar
Each jar contains 160 pieces: 100 buttons, 40 paper blossoms and 20 felt heart shapes.
 - Love Potion Tiny Box Set
Each set includes: 1 Box, 3 buttons, 1 sticker sheet & a foldout. Box measures approximately 3" x 1.5" x .5" (did I mention "tiny"?).
- Love Stickers
Pink, white and red die-cut cardstock stickers in a variety of shapes and messages/graphics.
