Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! Today I’m sharing a card featuring the brand new SN Guy & Gal: Eric and Nadine stamp set from Sweet November Stamps — and I absolutely love these two together! š
Eric and Nadine have such a sweet, storybook feel to them. I decided to create a fun Joyfold card design — a mini card tucked inside a larger one — to add a little interactive surprise. Nadine flips open to the right, revealing a hidden message on the inside. I always love adding that unexpected element to my cards… it makes them feel extra special!
Coloring Details
Both images were colored with Copic Markers. I kept Eric in classic casual tones with soft greens and denim blues, while Nadine’s dress has a gentle lavender hue to complement the florals she’s holding. I added subtle shading and warm skin tones to give them depth and dimension while keeping the overall look soft and romantic.
Patterned Paper Love
For the background, I used the beautiful “Gardner’s Notebook” patterned paper from Catherine Pooler Designs. The leafy print pairs perfectly with the bouquet Nadine is holding, and I love how the soft mint tones make the characters pop. The striped paper on the inner panel adds a playful contrast and frames the mini card perfectly.
Joyfold Design
The Joyfold style is such a fun format to work with! The smaller front panel opens first, and then the larger card opens to reveal the full inside sentiment. It’s like a card within a card — perfect for highlighting a sweet couple like Eric and Nadine.
Nadine’s panel flips out to the right, making her the star of the interactive feature. It’s a simple mechanism, but it adds so much charm and interest to the design.
This stamp set is perfect for anniversary cards, Valentine’s Day, weddings, or just celebrating love in everyday moments. I can’t wait to create more scenes with these two!
Thanks so much for stopping by today — I hope this inspires you to try a Joyfold card with your next Sweet November Stamps project!
Happy crafting!
