I used this sketch from the Just Add Ink challenge this week.
And the Stampin' Up! Only challenge #11 is to do a Valentine.
The hearts are punched from embossed scraps of Cherry Cobbler with the Heart to Heart punch. The flap is a Top Note cut down a bit. And I love the Seam Binding for bows! It ties so easily and it's not bulky at all.
I could easily stamp Love in the bottom left corner, but I kinda like it without anything. I'll just let the hearts do the talking!
Card Recipe
Stamps: Baroque Motifs
Ink: Basic Black
Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler
Accessories: Heart to Heart & Corner Rounder Punches, Big Shot, Top Note Die, Square Lattice & Finial Press EFs, Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding
Only one card today. I was able to go to the Norman Rockwell exhibit at the Art Gallery so I didn't get any card making in. The exhibit was outstanding and I found a painting there that had hung in a restaurant in my hometown when I was growing up! How fun!
Enjoy,
Bonnie
