Hello All...
It's time once again for a new challenge
Use the color RED
I've been inspired by so many beautiful cards
around blogland with Valentine's Day right around the corner,
here's what I came up with . . .
DRU product used on today's card are:
Cheery Lynn Designs 'Two of Hearts'
Cheery Lynn Designs 'Cathedral Lace Frame'
Impression Obsession 'Special' stamp set
I have popped up the center sentiment panel using dimensional tape
and have used a few different hearts stacked together for texture.
Speaking of texture, lately I have gotten back into using some of my OLD
products & techniques like UTEE (ultra thick embossing enamel) used
on my die cut word SPECIAL. It truly does make this card even more Special!
Since I wanted to keep with the red & white theme, I decided
to die cut my ivy from white card stock vs green.
This card could be used for a variety of occasions ... i.e. Birthday, Encouragement
as well as Valentine's.
