Good Morning! What a pretty day, snow and all!
This card will be entered into the following Challenges; Dies R Us, Love, Simon Says Wednesday, Have A Heart, and Mod Squad, Hearts and/or Flowers.
The stamped heart is by PTI, Love & Marriage and was die cut using Spellbinders Hearts. I started by creating a wood grain background, by scoring my card stock every 1/2" and then swiping with several inks, Antique Linen, Timber Brown, and Frost White. MFT Mini Pennants and Penny Black Heart Strings dies also used.
Designer Papers by Theresa Collins, Hello My Name Is. Valentines don't have to be all frilly!
Have a wonderful day.
Enjoy~~
I just love that Heart Strings die, and you use it so often. Very versatile. Your background is awesome, works so well with the black and red colors. This is just amazing, a perfect masculine Valentine!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is THE ultimate masculine Valentine. I love the background you created. The snow looks pretty but I'm glad it's not near me ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great masculine Valentine! Really nice!!!
ReplyDeleteTFS!
A great example that a Valentine does not have to be frilly to be a valentine. Love the masculine look to it. The wood paneling and the single heart. Judy is right, love that string heart die. Good luck and thanks for playing at the Mod Squad Challenge this week.
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome card. I think it can be hard to create masculine cards, but you make it look so easy!
ReplyDeleteI really like this, Donna. But then again, when have you ever made a card I didn't like? NEVER!
