Our Free 10 Things I Love Valentine Printable, Links, Winner & Samples!

Hi Everyone,   

This post includes our Free Vintage Valentine Printable  ‘10 Things I Love About – List’ and links to our past free vintage Valentine Printables! Feeling loved and letting others know you love them is essential to our happiness in life and this list provides a fun way to let others know how much you love and appreciate them.

First, congrats to #33, Becky Dunham, who won our , Love Mail ScrapsCherish Clear Art Stamps,  Romance Cotton Scraps and  Vintage Love Cuts 
 Each season we have a some type of free printable as a thank you gift for your support and I love how great this 2013 Free Valentine Printable turned out!  The file was so huge I reduced it to 250 ppi (pixels per inch) so it's now only 1.5 MB size but it's still prints beautifully on 8.5 x 11" sheet. To save this file just left click your mouse on it a couple of times to get it as large as possible and right click on it to save it to your computer. You can see small samples with links to our past 'Valentine Love Printables' images farther down in this post.


Here's 10 Creative Ways You Can Use this Free Printable.  If you think of any more, please leave a comment. I thought of 1 more.  Print a copy for everyone in your family and create a '10 Things I love About Our Family Album Cover', then fill out a page for each family member and present them as cards.  Later, add them all to the keepsake album. I borrowed this idea after seeing Vick Chrisman's Altered Book she made with Christmas photos and cards her family received over the holidays

This List is pasted on the '10 Things I Love About' List but the text is tiny.

Add to a fridge with a cute magnet

Fold or roll, tie with ribbon, add to a lunch bag, pillow, plate, purse or pocket

Add to a scrapbook layout with a photo of loved one

Turn into a postcard back and add an image or photo to the front.

Decorate and add ribbon or wire to hang on plant, vase, wall, etc

Print on fabric to make a mini pillow (add photo for extra personal touch)

Embellish with glitter, gems, ribbon, lace, etc to create a beautiful card

Make 2 copies to cut and add images for a 3D paper tole effect

Cut the inside of the title and frame out and add your own words and photo

Take a photo of your list and send it by i-phone or email to a loved on


      Look at this sweet family keepsake DT leader Vicki Chrisman made using this Free Valentine Printable List with papers from our $9.95 Valentine Digital Download and the new Frame and Bow Die she designed for AccuCut.


        I adore this layout Cindy van Koll our graphic designer made for my niece using our 'free
        printable 10 Things I Love About list'.  The papers, 3D frame, rose and valentines are from 
        our Digital Valentine Kit.   Arissa was so excited and proud! What a great way to boost
        anyone's self esteem and let them know they are appreciated and loved! 


After Cindy made the digital layout above she added some 3D fun buy re-printing the 5 valentines and rose head and adding some pop dots and glitter. You can see how 3D the rose looks below. Too bad the photo didn't turn out great, so I showed the flat sample above. 


  I wanted to show you what I'm working on this weekend and plan to use my new sewing
  machine to sew on card stock I printed with hearts from our Heart to Heart Digital Art Stamp Set.

This is the first EVER sewing machine I've owned and I'm thrilled with it! It's a Brother CS6000i Advance model and was$155.00 from amazon.com with free shipping, 60 computerized stitches, all the accessories, a free arm and a case! 



Here's my 2011 list with 32 Creative Ways to say I Love You and it was the inspiration f0r creating our new 10 Things I Love About List.   Click the link to get the printable full page

This is a link to our  2 Crafty Secrets Free Valentine Printables from Feb 2010.

Here's a link to our Free 2011 Printable Valentine Message adapted from an antique postcard.  I was away for Valentines in 2012 and didn't do a printable.


I also have a few samples I wanted to show you.  Vicki Chrisman, created these 2 new dies for Accucut with a frame you can create albums from and a cute bow die. Here are 2 inside pages using our Cherish Clear Art Stamp Set, still in stock and on sale for $15.50!



DT Member Darlene Pavlick has been busy whipping up all sorts of samples and look at these 2 cute cards for Valentines or they could work for a birthday girl. The cupcake girl is from our Valentine Digital Kit and the little love chef is from our $4.95 Homemade Booklet.



I love this fun birthday card that DT Member Michele Kovack created for a 'golfer guy' because I adore the crazy pants and socks on this image on our SM43 Golf Time Clear Art Stamp Set and we still have this set in stock and on sale for $9.50



Whew, that all for now!  See you soon with more inspiring samples

New Giveaway for Vintage Valentine Digital Stamps, Kit & Victorian Rose Cards!

Hi Everyone,

I have another fun Giveaway, this time for 4 items with our New 'Be My Valentine'  Digital Stamp Set and  our NEW Victorian Rose Cards Printables for $2.95 with 6 super pretty graphics filled with roses, plus our Valentine Digital Kit.  I will post the fourth item this Monday as it's not quite finished but will be a Large Digital Stamp Set called Heart to Heart with 6 eclectic hearts in a collage style, keys, a lock and a bunch of great quotes for $9.95.  Leave a comment here and I will post a random.org winner on Mon afternoon, Jan 21 when I show our new stamp set.

I held up our Be My Valentine Digital Stamps because I decided they would be easier for many people to use if some of the images were pre-colored red.  So now every files comes in B&W and RED so you can choose which to print if you don't know how to change colors.  I am totally in LOVE with how BIG some of the images are on this set!  You can shrink them down for smaller projects but these will be be great to add to scrapbook pages or print on fabric for fun projects.  I will be posting some samples next week as our DT ladies just received these today.  These are $9.95 with 20 separate digital stamp designs!


I love how pretty these printable sheets turned out with 6 super pretty graphics filled with roses adapted from a book of old calling cards I have from the late 1800's. Our Victorian Rose Cards Printable $2.95 Download includes 3 sheets (8.5" x 11") with 6 printable cards 4.75 x 6.75” each.  You can print on a variety of mediums to create tags, greeting cards, place cards, iron-on designs, accents for scrapbook pages, print them on label paper for stationary and more! Shrink the designs small and add Diamond Glaze and glitter to create Victorian pins, pendants and charms. This is a new product but visit our blog to see more samples that our talented Design Team will be creating!

DT Leader Vicki Chrisman whipped these pretty samples up for me this morning


I promise - we are going to start a bunch more tutorials with step by step tips!  First, we have 1 more love theme digital stamp set debuting on Monday, Heart to Heart, filled with 6 eclectic style collage hearts (I've wanted hearts like this forever) and these are are about 5" tall, with keys, a lock and special quotes from the heart. We are not adding any Valentine sentiments so it works year round.

So leave a comment here to be entered to WIN and a random.org winner will be announced Mon, Jan 21/13 to win: our Valentine Kit, Be Mine Valentine Digital Stamp Set, Victorian Rose Card Printables and our new Heart to Heart Digital Stamp Set debuting on Monday.

I'm also going to put together a special LOVE Package on Monday of printed items and stamps that will include our Love Mail Creative Scraps, Romance Cuts  , Romance Homespun Cotton Scraps a Clear Art Stamp set - but sadly our Valentine Stickers just sold out.


Wishing you joy & creativity
Sandy Redburn
