Valentine Chloe

 I don't really do Valentine cards, but I do love Chloe, so I decided to have a go at making a vampish Valentine card using Heartful Chloe from InStyle Stamps.  I don't even have any romantic style papers .. do I really need them?!

I coloured her using my promarkers and cut her out.  I embossed some red cardstock using my CB Hearts folder, and sat Chloe on a doily heart.  Some white ribbon, a glittered and glossed heart, some gems and stickles complete the card.  She looks a bit Mortica -ish ... perhaps just too cute a face :)

 It fits these challenges:
Totally Papercrafts Challenge - add a heart
A Spoonfull of Sugar - Valentines card
PollyCraft Challenges - black, white + 1 colour
Passion for Promarkers - let it shine
Papertake Weekly - sketch

Recipe:
Stamp(s): Heartful Chloe from InStyle Stamps.
Colouring Media: Promarkers (sunkissed pink, blush, ivory, burgundy, cardinal red, ruby, cool grey 5, ice grey 5-1)
Papers: none
Embellishments: from stash
