Hexagons, Chevrons & Hearts

Here's my card for the OWH mid-week throwdown to use Hexagons. I made this card a while ago, and had it in a folder with a lot of other cards that were never posted but it fits the challenge perfectly. All products used are from SU! and the colors are island indigo and pool party.

Here's a card I'm entering into the Mod Squad Valentine challenge which has 2 parts this week. Part 1 is to use at least 1 heart, and part 2 is to use glitter. I am not a fan of glitter by any means, but I did have a foam glittered heart sticker in my stash that I popped on this card to meet the challenge. The chevron ribbon is from May Arts, and the little banners are from SU!'s banner blast done in turquoise and real red. I decided to string the banners individually in a vertical design instead of the mostly-used horizontal position. I used matching twine to "hang" them, and made the layered heart with my Cricut, running the white heart through the paper crimper. The background was done with a Sizzix hearts & curlique ef set.

The sun is out today, and although it's still pretty cold, I hope it will help melt some of this ice away! So many folks living close to me have been without power since the ice storm hit yesterday, and all I can say is bravo! to all those utility workers who are out there working around the clock in this horrible weather trying to restore power to everyone as quickly as possible! What they do can't be an easy job!

Thanks for stopping by today and make it a great day!
