I saw a gorgeous card on my friend Kate’s blog today and while I have found myself with a bonus hour or so to myself (unheard of on a Saturday afternoon) I thought I’d knock up a quick Valentine’s card for hubby.  The card is based on the current sketch over at CPS and I’ve used my current favourite papers from PTI along with their Pure Poppy card and ribbon.  The felt heart in the centre (sent to me by aforementioned friend!) is from a little pack of fab embellies by Martha Stewart (I ADORE her and her products).  I am entering this into the challenge at A Passion For Papertrey too which is Be My Valentine.

Right, off to make the most of my time with no kids or demanding husband.
Catchya later!

We have a LOVEly challenge over at Mos’ this week perfect for a Valentine theme.  I have used Shy Valentine Vanessa and some gorgeous paper from the Simple Valentine pad from PTI.  She is coloured with Promarkers.

 

Have a great day.

ETA : just thought I’d enter this in the current challenge (Be My Valentine) over at A Passion For Papertrey as I just realised it will count seeing as I have used PTI papers and card – yay!

Another day another AMAZING announcement over on Nichole Heady’s blog, Capture The Moment.  In the run up to the 15th (new release day) there have been some amazing celebrations and announcements going on and today is no exception.  The DT have each come up with a gorgeous colour combination they love to use and have challenged everyone to have a go creating something in those colours.  I was immediately drawn to Dawn McVeys (although I adore them ALL) :
