I {heart} you...

What a busy start to the week! I was on call Monday and am just surfacing today-craziness! I am finally beginning to think about Valentine's cards and bought some fun new images from Zlatoena- I do have a fond spot for her rabbits:)


  I printed the rabbit image on Whisper White CS on my Epson printer and colored it with Copics, adding a little yellow Spica Glitter pen on the flowers to make them sparkle. The bow was colored with Copics and Spica glitter pen and popped on dots to give it dimension- so cute IRL!


 I used the sketch from MFT which fit perfectly with this long, narrow image (a little late now that it's a new Wednesday, but better late than never-lol!). The background papers are from a MME pack called "Love Me Do" which I've had in my stash for awhile now. The top border is trimmed with a white strip punched with the "Pinking Hearts" border punch and some thin, red ric rac. The flower is punch using a retired SU flower punch, centered with a brad from last year's Valentine's stash. I hand wrote the greeting (a million times before I liked the look of all three "letters" and cut it out using the smallest Labels 14 die.


The inside is finished with matching paper and the greeting stamped onto the blue dotted paper, cut out with a larger Labels 14 die to tie in with the outside.

This card will probably go to my daughter (who has already had her hot little hands all over it:) for Valentine's Day.

Hope you're having a great day- sunny and 60 here in Houston!
