You're the Bestest!

Good morning friends and fellow bloggers.  Just because Valentine's Day is past doesn't mean that we can't use hearts on our cards, but it does mean that we are getting closer to spring.  We can just hope that Mother Nature is in agreement!


Today's card is for the new challenge at DZ Doodles, and this week it is a sketch challenge. 

This lovely sketch from Valerie is nice and easy to work with, so I do hope you will give it a try.  Maybe you will be the lucky person to win one of Diane's new images.  There are lots of new ones for you to choose from in the store.

This time around I have used the Flowerd Heart image, colouring with both markers and Prismas.  The card blank is a new purchase from Michael's.....already embossed!   It just needed to be sponged with distress inks to highlite the pattern.  I've also made good use of some gold peel-off stickers for the embellishments.  They've been in my stash for ages, but I forget to use them....

Some challenges I can enter with this card:

    I love the way you have used the peel offs and the punched border. You are quite right we should use hearts all year round. Thanks for joining us at Winter Wonderland this week love Linda
