I love this
Apron stamp from Karen
Lockart. I think it's the biggest image from all of Karen's collections...and to me it just begs to be paper pieced each time I reach for it.
So I reached for some of my new Valentine paper from My Mind's Eye and used three separate patterns to paper piece the apron, pocket and dish towel. I colored the straps red with a
Copic Sketch marker.
The dish towel is raised up on pop dots to add dimension. For some detail, I used some
Papertrey Sweet blush satin ribbon and tied on some gold charms. I added a pink sequin to the heart.
And above is the inside of the card. The *let's get
cookin'* sentiment is by Karen
Lockhart, a perfect companion to the apron. The *Sweetie Pie* sentiment is from
Papertrey Ink's My
Punny Valentine. This will be a FUN card to send out for Valentine's Day....perhaps to someone who likes to cook. Have you started on YOUR Valentine cards yet?

Let's get cookin' sweetie pie - LOL; cute! Love the little hanging "wooden" spoon too.
That is adorable! Love the spoon!
Adorable card. Love the spoon embellishment.
I've always enjoyed seeing the apron on different cards and yours is exceptional because it's made for Valentine's Day. The spoon embellishment is a wonderful addition to the card; where did you find it?
Oh WOW, this is so cute!! I love the sentiment you put inside....I think my hubby would love that since he lovesssss to cook! Love how you paper pieced the apron and that little spoon charm just ROCKS!
Have a great day!

Love the heart paper and what a cute little spoon charm
fabulous card, love it :)
This is so fun, I was just looking at that stamp - thanks for the inspiration. Also, I loved your V-Day party ideas for your daughters. You definitely are the coolest Mom.
Love the card. I remember my grandma's apron and have just bought one for myself so my granddaughter might have the same memories I do associated with an apron. Thanks for sharing.

I love the Sweetie pie stamp! You did an awesome job with the little apron!
The card is cute but the charms are adorable. Gotta love that MME paper. I have my valentine's done but seeing some of your creations, I may need to make more.
I swear, only YOU would know how to turn an apron into a Valentine! So dang adorable.
I never leave comments, but follow your blog and even have categorized your work on my computer for copying b/c I am a scraplifter. I'm a pharmacist- so obviously the artistic side of my brain doesn't work! How you came up with card is beyond me- you truly have a unique talent. Thanks for all your posts.
Love this card!
Love your paper piecing!!! And of course that little spoon is just a perfect finishing touch!

Alovely card with the sweetest spoon that I have ever seen!!! :-)))
