It's that time of year for us ........ we celebrate our 41st Wedding Anniversary on 13th February, and of course, 14th February is Valentines Day ...
Here is the Anniversary/Valentines card I made for Mr Fixit
On the inside of the card it says "I think I will keep you!"
Sentiment
(font: Finesse) printed with laser Printer, the heart shape was foiled
in Red with the MiniMinc. Centre panel was die cut with Spellbinders, then
background was ink blended with a brush using Distress Ink (Candied
Apple) while still inside the die, giving another border effect, without adding an extra layer.
Centre panel was then layered onto red cardstock, then mounted
onto black leathergrain (300 gsm) cardbase using foam dots.
Red Gems and Black Bling hearts added as a finishing touch!
There are so many challenges with a 'love' theme at the moment :) it is a real love fest out there!
The 'InspiredBy' challenge inspired the placement of the two overlapping heart shapes I used.
The 'Inspiration Station' challenge inspired the use of red hearts.
The 'TicTacToe' challenge, I chose Across Middle Row: Red/Free/Love Sentiment
The 'Try it on Tuesday' challenge theme is 'all you need is love' ......

ReplyDeleteLOL :) we often say to each other "I might have to trade you in on a new model!" but then the response is usually "you wouldn't get much for me" ;)
