This year I couldn't make my mind up about what sort of card to make Mr P for Valentines, so ended up making a couple of small cards. Then last week a lady in one of my Facebook craft groups shared a beautiful card she had made using a Papermania Wellington Bear stamp and I knew I had found just the inspiration that I was looking for. It then took a while to actually track down the stamp as it is not a current range. First I found it on eBay, purchased it, only for two days later the seller refund me as she didn't actually have the stamp - errrrr what's that all about, selling stuff that you don't actually have!!! In the end I found it on Amazon and it finally arrived on the 12th, giving me just enough time to use it.
For a change I didn't use my trusty Promarkers, I dug out some watercolour card and used my Derwent watercolour pencils. I haven't used them since I made the switch to Promarkers and I had forgotten how lovely they are.
So thank you
Hermine for your inspiration.
I will share the other cards later in the week, we are off to a family wedding later today and staying over in the hotel. It is a rare treat to actually be doing something on Valentines as usually Mr P is working.
That's such a sweet card. I love going back to older products and techniques. Just because they're not the "in thing" doesn't mean they can't get some love! Happy V-Day.
