I needed a masculine valentine card for my Technique night class, and my By the Bay one was a little to time consuming for the purpose, so I went to Pinterest for some ideas. I found a couple by France Martin that I just loved, where she embossed the gears, rather than die cut them, but, alas, I didn't order the "Meant to Be" Bundle and had no heart shapes for die cutting, so I needed Plan B. I decided to keep the gears though, die cut using the Garage Gears Thinlits Dies, and use Cherry Cobbler, stamped with the "grease spot" stamp from Geared Up Garage Cling Stamp Set in Smoky Slate for that textured look in the background, and add a panel of Classic Garage DSP.
I love the look of the silver foil on the deep Cherry Cobbler and Basic Gray paper. It's so striking don't you think? I added a strip of Black/Silver 1/4" Striped Metallic Ribbon and then die cut the Auto Logo shape out of the silver foil as well and stamped the great sentiment in Cherry Cobbler and used the same die to die cut it as well. I placed the silver middle piece back in by using a strip of Tear & Tape across the back to hold it in place and glued the Whisper White piece with the sentiment on top of it. The whole logo/sentiment piece was added using Mini Dimensionals. The final touch was Heart Epoxy Droplets coloured using the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends Marker.

THE STARTER KIT!
You can get these items right now as part of your Starter Kit. And during Sale-A-Bration, you can pay just $135 and get $225 worth of any Stampin' Up! Products you want including any of these SAB coordinating items - and did I mention NO SHIPPING!! Do you have to sell anything? Not unless you want to, but if you signed up today you would get an additional five and a half months of 20% discounts on your favourite Stampin' Up! crafting projects, first peak at the new Annual Catalogue and the ability to order from it a month before the public!
Isn't that too good to pass up? Sounds like it to me.What happens after 5 1/2 months? Nothing, you just lose your status as a demonstrator, if you can't make your minimum in sales, and that's it!
If you live in Canada, and don't have a demonstrator, I would LOVE to have you join my team!
