Crafty Sentiments Challenge

 This week's Crafty Sentiments Challenge theme is Valentine's.

I used these 2 fab images from the January release, they look very chic Italian!  I coloured them with my pens before cutting them out.  I love the red, cream, kraft colour combination, so I simply used left over Christmas papers matted onto kraft cardstock.  I added a heart embossed panel and some gems.  The sentiment and die are from Crafty Sentiments.

The Craft Gareden January Challenge

This month's Craft Garden is a colour challenge - RED.

 I made this Valentine's day card, as red screams hearts and romance to me.  I simply embossed the red cardstock with a Sizzix heart folder and CB Swiss Dots folder, before scoring a couple of lines and adding gingham ribbon.  I embossed the kraft cardstock using another Sizzix hearts folder, and added a couple of die cut hearts and a gingham bow.  Finally some red flat backed pearls.

Supplies:
