The Stamp Review Crew is at it again! Who is the Stamp Review Crew? We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators who specialize in showing you how versatile a single stamp set can be! Every 1st and 3rd Monday we feature one stamp set and show you multiple ways to use it. You will be able to hop through all of our blogs and find a variety of projects. I am Lucky #13 on the hop. You should have just left stop #12: Rita Wright. If so, you are in the right spot. If you get off track, the full blog lineup at the end of this post will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations. This week our focus is on the Hearts A Flutter set. With Valentines Day just ahead, we thought we would help you out with some awesome ideas for this adorable set and coordinating framelits. I hope you enjoy today’s clean and colorful card.
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips: Cute and Colorful
This finished card measures 5-1/2″ wide x 4-1/4″ long.
- Be still my heart! The hearts from Hearts A Flutter are perfect for “pearling” and stacking. Inked in Strawberry Slush and Bermuda Bay, they coordinate perfectly with the new Kaleidoscope Designer Series Paper.
- Curvaceous! In a departure from my typical banner, the cursive “Love” sentiment from the Best of Love set was inked in JetBlack StazOn. It was cut out with an Oval Framelit, and then the sides were trimmed. The result complements the curves of the hearts.
- Banner banter! Perfect banners were cut using the new Banner Framelits. And look how well these patterns from the Kaleidoscope Designer Series Paper coordinate with each other. My little secret as to why they work so well together? They are all geometric shapes! Triangles, circles and squares, oh my!
What do you think of today’s card? Won’t you let me know in your comment? Your comments are very important to me.

Your card is gorgeous. Love the mixture of designs and love, of course, your use of pearls!
I love how you perfectly picked and placed all the various patterns in this card, plus the color combo is a terrific choice. A terrific card Ann!
Great card,great colors, and what a fun hop to go on! I’m so happy this set is still current and you’re inspiring me to take it out and play with it again.
Another stunner Ann. I like the fact that this is more of a modern design than the typical Victorian look you see so much of in Valentine cards.
Always love seeing your creations…I love the colors, the hearts and the layering and the textures of the hearts….and of course your pearls!!!!!
Ann, you have to be the queen of “pearling”! Your card is gorgeous – love the colors and of course, your pearls 🙂

Wow, Bermuda Bay and Strawberry Slush look fantastic together! Love the “curvaceous” banner with the sentiment. And of course the pearls, it just wouldn’t be an Ann Schach if there weren’t any pearls 😉

Great color combination. I love all the little pearls on there!
Exquisite details!
