💗 Welcome to DOstamping Days of Love!
A week-long celebration of heart-inspired creativity. It’s that time of year when love takes center stage and creativity blooms. I’ll be sharing simple cards, clever ideas, sweet treats, to fun folds—to spark your creativity and spread a little handmade love.
Day #1 – Today & Always Collage Card
Today’s project features the Endless Love Bundle, part of the charming Made with Love Suite (from the Jan 2026 Mini Catalog) With soft hues, layered hearts, and a simple collage layout, this card sets the tone for a week of handmade affection. Whether you’re crafting for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or just because, this design is a gentle reminder to celebrate love “Today & Always.”
✂️How’d She DO That? Today & Always Collage card
- Stamps/Bundles: Endless Love Bundle – includes dies
- Paper:
- Poppy Parade (8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card base)
- Basic White (4″ x 5-1/4″ – scrap for sentiment tag)
- Made with Love Designer Series Paper (scrap for sentiment tag)
- Ink: Real Red, Bubble Bath
- Other: Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Bubble Bath 1/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon, Loose Valentine’s Assortment, Stampin’ Seal, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue
💡DOstamping Tips:
- Stamping Off Technique: Adds depth and softness to the background without overpowering the focal hearts.
- Collage Composition: A mix of outlined, striped & solid hearts, and stamping off the white panel edges creates visual interest.
- Stamping Tips & Color Palette:
- four striped hearts = Bubble Bath
- two “swirl” hearts (one stamped off) = Real Red
- four heart clusters = Real Red stamped off
- four small hearts = Bubble Bath
- Tags: The sentiment & DSP tags are attached together with a piece of Bubble Bath 1/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon & tied off with Real Red & White Baker’s Twine – adding texture and balance.
- Finishing Touches: Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue to add Loose Valentine’s Assortment to fill in some of the white space.
❤️ This card is a beautiful way to say “I’m thinking of you today & always”. Stay tuned all week for more heart-filled inspiration — from clever tips to treat-worthy projects. Let’s keep the love flowing.

I am not a big Valentines Day person. I made tons the last few years for seniors so I used a lot of my old paper up. I am making some treat holders this year. I had $20worth of gift cards so I bought numerous boxes of Little Debbie Valentine brownies to put in them. Maybe you will have an idea this. I like this card with the striped hearts stamped off. I like the addition of the pink banner punched piece under the sentiment.
Thank you for sharing! Treat holders with those Little Debbie brownies sound adorable (be sure to watch for my version coming this week). I’m glad the striped hearts and little pink banner caught your eye. Even if Valentine’s isn’t your favorite, it sounds like you’re making it special for others. 💗
