SC369 I {heart} you

I played along with the SC369 challenge today over on SCS and decided to use some blue color instead of the traditional reds I'd usually use with a heart image. I printed the SNSS Rhubarbs's heart digi image, adding a printed sentiment to the inside of the heart, and colored with Copics. I used 2 different Sizzix embossing folders for this - the curlique & hearts set, along with the Valentine set of 2. I used a scor-pal to score the turquoise panel, and a SU! fancy scallop punch for the horizontal border. The image was cut with a Labels 2 die and edged with a navy marker and 4 white mini brads were added to the corners. Those 3 tiny hearts along the side were punch-outs from the newest SNSS hearts & stars scallop border dies, done in the same cardstock as the diagonal panel. A little piece of SU! turquoise ribbon wrapped up this card for the final touch.
I hope you're having a wonderful day today and thanks so much for stopping by!

Carol, I'm melting. You do such a fantastic job with Rhubarb. I love the blue colors for a very nice change from red. Great scoring job on the diagonal pice of card stock. I like that Curlique & Hearts embossing folder more and more each time I see it. I think it will have to hit my Wish List.
Well off for now. Talk later.
