Today I have a little valentine to share as that special day is just around the corner and I need to finish making mine! This little bear is from Inky Antics, and he was colored with Copics and had his tail dotted with liquid applique before cutting and matting with Lil Inker stitched rectangle dies. The card base itself is die-cut with the Lil Inker stitched rectangles as well. The papers are from SU! and I used a Martha Stewart heart border punch along with a Lil Inker stitched die to cut the sentiment panel. I used a SU! Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set for the sentiment, heat-embossing it in white and called this one done.
I'll enter this into the following challenges:
Dies R Us challenge #138 - XOXO (hearts, love, valentine)
Cute Card Thursday #619 - Valentines
2 Crafty Critter Crazies February challenge - must use a critter
Crafty Calendar Challenge for February - use die cuts or punches
Thanks for checking in and I wish you all a fabulous weekend!
