Love is in the Air

This week's challenge at PBSC was to complete the phrase Love Is ....... either on the front or inside the card.

I treated myself to this stamp (Hedgehopper) last month when the new Valentine releases came out from Penny Black.


I try to get lots of use from my stamps and could easily use this for male birthdays by not stamping the string of hearts. 

This is the card that I have made to give to my DH for Valentine's Day


I used paper from Craft Creations Ltd, organza ribbon from my stash and some mini alphabet stamps (think they are Studio G) for the title.  The heart was cut from chipboard using a Sizzlet die, coloured with a red tombow marker pen and then covered with red glitter glue.  The image was watercoloured with Derwent pencils and the hearts were highlighted with glossy accents.

I am sure he will like it and at least he won't get the sulks because I have given him a shop bought card LOL!!

Sorry for the picture quality - the weather is dire here at the moment for photography.
