Hello friends, some of you may not want to hear this, but we have been enjoying beautiful summer days here in Canberra, the summer has flown by so fast - it is hard to believe we only have one month left and then there is autumn/fall - one of my favorite seasons here - the autumnal tones are spectacular! But before that happens - I have a card to share with you today.
This is not specifically a Valentines Day card, but certainly could be, or many others occasions for that matter, The beautiful papers are from Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments Collection and really are a statement in themselves.
I have used the printed images for my base paper and embellishments - it certainly makes for a quick and easy card. These have been cut using the Spellbinders 5x7 Matting Basics A Nestabilities Card Creator and the Platinum Die Cutting and Embossing Machine.
A few extra stamped postmarks have been added using Imagine Crafts 'featuring' Tsukineko Inks. My card is held together by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L - the beautiful bling is from Want2Scrap.
This card is liked to the following challenges:
