I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas! It’s hard to believe that the New Year is just around the corner. I’m having a rough time getting back into the swing of things!
The Sketch Challenge on Splitcoast LAST WEEK was this cute design. (You can see it here) This version uses Pretty in Pink as the base (8.5 x 11) and a piece of the Rose Red print paper on the background (4 x 5 1/4). I stamped some Whisper White with my very neglected Greetings Galore stamp set and punched out the images using my 1 1/4 circle punch. I colored the hearts with Stampin’ Write Markers in Pretty in Pink and Rose Red and layered the circles on 1 3/8 Rose Red circles.
The strip across the top is 2 x 5 1/4 Pretty in Pink with the opposite side of the Rose Red paper cut to 1 3/4 x 5. The background circles are punched with 1 3/8 circle in Pretty in Pink. The circles with the stamping are raised on dimensionals. The sentiment is from Holidays and Wishes and is stamped on a piece of Whisper White, trimmed, and slid under the strip on top. Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
Fran: You always amaze me…Now with the holidays almost behind us……I was going to get ready for Valentine’s Day – and you beat me to the punch. AWESOME Card……..You are really making it hard to stick to my original design for Valentine Card. Thanks for the post – and….Happy New Year! Kadie
Fran, you’ve done a beautiful job with this sketch! Hope your Christmas was FANTASTIC!!!
Very pretty! Can you tell that I am not getting very much work done today? I can’t wait to start making Valentine’s stuff, but first I have to make some thank you cards.
Very pretty Valentine, Fran! Great job with the sketch too!
I was so late with my Christmas cards…I’m thinking I need to start Valentines early. 😉
This is so fresh and cute! You really did make an old tired stamp set new again!
