It is an insanely gorgeous day here in Texas! After church and lunch we ran by the house, picked up the puppy, and had a nice family time at the park. It was amazing to be out in the sunshine and fresh air after being home sick in bed for the past week.
Last night I was itching to stamp, so I decided to participate in a few challenges. I started out wanting to participate in this week's Color Throwdown Challenge but no matter what I tried I just couldn't make it work. So I decided to just stick with this week's Mojo Monday sketch and go more simple on my color scheme.
Verve Stamps has another amazing digital freebie set!!! It is available for download from now until February 14th called Love From Me and I LOVE it! ;)
I still do not have a printer but my wonderful cousin let me use her printer so I could get my hands on these wonderful digi stamps! I was so excited!
I colored one of the hearts with my Blush Copic marker, cut it out, and popped it up on dimensionals to give it more depth.
For the half circle I used a doily that Julee had included in my last Verve order (thank you sweetie!!) and the paper is from an old Stampin' Up! stack called Banbury (which after a quick Google search I realized is completely nonexistent).
I wanted a little more bling than just the gingham bow so I added some silver metallic thread just to add a hint of shimmer but I think I let it get away from me.
I still love this card and think it will be a wonderful feature card at my next stamping class. :)
I am off for some more family time. The boys want to play Life. We played Monopoloy last night and I won big time so I think they're ready for payback. ;)
