Here's my card for the Stars & Stamps #93 sketch challenge found here. I'm in Valentine mode now since I've sent all my Christmas cards to OWH already. For this one, I used all BoBunny dp, adding a punched heart for interest and a tiny pink heart brad on the sentiment panel. The pink panel was embossed with little hearts, and the sentiment is from the SNSS Christmas tag clear stamp set. For this one, I let the DP have the whole show!
This is last week's sketch #92 that I never got around to finishing. The dp is also by BoBunny, and for this one I embossed the heart with a square lattice ef, and then added a tiny punched heart & key, done with a MS punch. I used a stamp-a-ma-jig for the sentiment and STILL got it crooked. DUH! Maybe the recipient won't even notice that after there are some lovey dovey words written inside :)That's it for me today - take good care and have a great weekend! My DH is outside clearing/shoveling the snow we got yesterday. I can't wait to see what old man winter brings us next!!
Edit - the embossing folder I used on the first card is from a Sizzix Textured impressions set called the curlique and hearts set. here is what it looks like.

oh my.... this is so pretty. The heart embossing is perfect for your card. I love how you have the sentiment off set from the heart.. great idea. thanks so much for sharing ~ Pam
Carol, both cards are so pretty. It's funny how we both went with Valentine's Day mode today. I love the papers in your first card and those little embossed hearts really do make quite a statement. All around fab. card. Your second card is equally as beautiful. I love the square lattice embossed heart. That really helps it stand on it's own. Those MS pieces bring something so special to the card. Love the papers on this one also. I'm sure the recipient will not even notice the sentiment, I didn't until I read about it. That is what makes it a one-of-a-kind anyway. Look GREAT. Try to stay warm, go Tony.
i love your creations!
very romantic and sweet with great texture and dp's!
