Good afternoon everyone. My husband Peter has THE worst memory in history for remembering birthdays and anniversaries so there's NO WAY he's gonna remember Valentine's Day!! Don't think I've had a card to mark the occasion for a few years now LOL!
I have found a way around that though, this is my card - from Peter ROFL! I have also just downloaded this image from Karen's Doodles (link in sidebar) and don't want to part with it now - yes, a little selfish I know - but those hedgies are just too cute!! I'm entering this into the following challenges:
Basic Grey - Animals
Bee Crafty - Romance
Creative Card Crew - Valentine's Card
Creative Craft Challenge - Valentine's Card
Dare U 2 Digi - Hearts/Valentine
Friday Sketchers - Sketch
Fussy and Fancy - Hearts
Magical Crafts Fortnightly Challenge - Valentine
Papertake Weekly - Love Actually
I knew I wanted to use this image and as soon as I saw this fab sketch from FS - PERFICK!!
RECIPE
Image - Karen's Doodles
Colouring Medium - watercolour pencils and copics
Papers - Basic Grey
Brown Cardstock - Sizzix
Punch - Martha Stewart
Ribbon - Stash
Sentiment - handwritten
I experimented a bit more with my pattered papers too and I'm really pleased with the result!! I shall look forward to receiving it and act all surprised!! or, maybe I'll sign it with a question mark teeheehee!!! No, I've actually shown him it already, and he's thanked me for saving him money LOL! Maybe he'll put that towards a lovely bunch of flowers instead....... or a new big shot!
Thanks for stopping by my little haven! Enjoy your day, hope you liked the card.
