ColourQ Challenge #117

Welcome 2012! My first post for the year plays along with the current ColourQ Challenge.



 Now that the Christmas holiday is over, my brain immediately goes into Valentine mode. So when the challenge is black, white and a color of your choice,  my frst color choice was red. I decided to create a Valentines Day card for my hubby. These happen to be the same colors that I used for his card last year.  I used PTIs linen/canvas impression plate and Heart Prints stamp set. I popped up the white cardstock with foam tape and heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder. I also dry embossed the black cardstock using my Martha Stewart score board. I attached all three hearts using foam adhesive. Lastly, I added Martha Stewart coarse glitter to the main heart image. Good thing my hubby doesn't mind glitter.

  3. Oh wow! Love, love, love that big sugary heart focal (perfect amount of man-glitter to boot!). I am always so impressed with your heat embossing. White on a dark color always looks like my sentiment has been caught in a snow storm. Yours so doesn't. The IP adds such lovely texture too. Beautifully done.
