My Little Valentine


Hi everyone and Happy New Year! It turns out that I haven't posted on here much lately and it's all due to the craziness of Christmas, working around hubby's schedule, 2 bouts of stomach flu for my kiddo's, entertaining my sister in law from out of town and putting together 2 Christmas dinners - Phew, I'm pooped just thinking about it! 

So, it being the New Year and all let's put the miracle of Christmas behind us and move on to the miracle that is me actually making a card! I made this one 2 days ago and have just had time to post it now ;) This sweet and simple little Valentine has been put together using the Smarty Pants set and combining it with the You're a Hoot set from There She Goes



To get the heart in the backdrop I sponged it in with various red inks with a dauber and used my TCW Mix and Match Hearts Template from eclectic Paperie :) I thought that the heart template tied in very nicely with the paper to make this little scalloped Valentine :D

Thanks for joining me today and I hope to be back a little sooner rather than later with another card ;)
