WMSC#83-Sewing Box Velvet Valentine
Just stopping in today with a card I made for Waltzingmouse Stamp Sketch Challenge #83. This weeks sketch is by one of Waltzingmouse's Mischief Makers, Jen Cuthbertson.
Isn't this a cute sketch for Valentines Day? I don't have very many Valentine Waltzingmouse images, but there is a really cute heart in Waltzingmouse Sewing Box Hugs. I used some black/white patterned paper layered over some red velvet cardstock. The velvet cardstock is cut using a scalloped nestie and I also used the velvet to cut a heart border with PTI's Heart Border die. Even though Waltzingmouse Nordic Winter is primarily a holiday set, it does have a great heart border stamp which I used to make a little patterned paper the image is stamped on. I also stamped a heart image onto some smokey shadow cardstock to add a little more contrast. here are three tiny heart shaped brads up in the corner and a spellbinder tag in smokey shadow holds the twine bow and sentiment tag from Afternoon Tea Sentiments. I am very careful how I use my precious velvet cardstock and just have enough for one more card, so I am going to have to ration it unless I can find some more!
