It turns out I'm going to have additional Grandkids and Great-Grands in town over Valentine's weekend so I'm cranking up the card making to have cards enough for everyone. This darling image from House Mouse/Gruffies is perfect for my first Great-Grand.
I colored with my ProMarkers and die cut the image with a die from Spellbinders. All the "Love" sentiments were die cut with the most recent set I purchased a couple of weeks ago but this is the first time I've used anything from the set (Sizzix/Tim Holtz.) I also used a new embossing folder to emboss the roses onto the cranberry red CS. The heart buttons and brads seemed like perfect little embellies for this rather 'busy' card.
