Valentine Hearts


  I have another Valentine to share today that's all about the hearts! I used a few remnants of my red glitter paper from SU! along with one of their (r) embossing folders to make this card. The large heart was die-cut with a stitched heart die that is unbranded. I used a mini SU! punch to cut the smaller hearts and placed them in a random fashion just for fun. The sentiment was computer generated and I used a hexagon punch to make the fishtail banners. The finishing touch was to add few random black Nuvo drops for some more added sparkle. 

Sharing this with the following challenges:


Can You Handle the Pressure? - A/G use an embossing with a twist of "Hearts"

Just Us Girls Challenge #666 - word week "sparkle"


Thanks for taking time from your busy day to stop by and I hope your day is a good one!

Love the sparkly red hearts on the heart embossed background!!! The Nuvo drops and sentiment add a nice third color to the design. Thanks for joining us this week at JUGS!

Another fabulous design, dear Carol! So modern and impressive with the random glittered hearts filling some of the embossed ones! They match perfectly the bigger heart and that big banner with the sentiment, too! The few black drops are the perfect touch to add interest!
Hope your days are good enough and send you my love and sweet thoughts
Big hugs!

Well, let me try this again.....blogger just doesn't seem to like me! LOL I love this card Carol! I love this little mouse so much, love that you sent him to me on a card as he is just way to adorable! I love your coloring, I need to come to your house and get a lesson on coloring. Your coloring is so smooth and buttery looking! Love those hearts too, love them in pink and a few red centers, looks amazing! But then again, pink, red, and yellow are my colors. LOL Love, love, love this card! Hugs, Brenda

Hi Carol,
Just trying to do some catching up on blogs & started with this sweet Valentine! Really love the embossing folder & how you used it! I'm doing well with my hip rehab, but will be glad when 3 months is up & I can get things from the bottom drawers!
Hugs,
