Valentines & Sunshine

Hi everyone! I have a couple of cards to show you today. For some reason, I couldn't seem to get very good photos of them. Maybe clicking on the images will give you a better idea of what they look like...I don't know.

I've made a Valentine using my Fabriano Notecards, and cute hearts on stems image (From the Heart/January '10 Monthly Mix). The sentiment is from another set (So Much Love), but both are from Lizzie Anne Designs. I embossed a frame with my Long Rectangle Nestabilities, then stamped the images inside the frame using sticky notes to mask the borders. The ribbon is from A Muse, and I used red Stickles to enhance the little hearts.

Stamps: From the Heart (Jan '10 Monthly Mix), So Much Love (Lizzie Anne Designs)
Card Stock: Fabriano Note Cards
Ink: Red Pigment (SU)
Accessories: Long Rectangle Nestabilites, A Muse Ribbon, Red Stickles



Here's an adorable cutie from The Greeting Farms. I colored her a couple of days ago, and finally got around to making a card with her.

Stamps: Peace (Hope & Grace Series/The Greeting Farm), Hey Sunshine (Aug '09 Monthly Mix/LAD)
Card Stock: Yo Yo Yellow, White, Obscure (BasicGrey)
Ink: Momento Tuxedo Black, Copic Markers
Accessories: Martha Stewart Border Punch, Scor-Pal, Square Nestabilities, Button (SU), Crochet Thread

Thanks for stopping by!!

Thanks for visiting!

Very clever masking on the first card, I love the sharpness of the red against the white, so pretty! I have yet to see the Peace GF image, and she is sweet! Adore the lei around her hair! And too much fun to see you mixing up stamps from different sets!
