Good evening everyone, and Happy Valentine's Day!! I hope you all managed to get through your front doors without being obstructed by the massive pile of cards on your doormats lol! Personally I didn't have too much trouble getting past my pile of Valentine cards, but I do have one to show you which I made for my darling husband :-) I prefer not to publish his Valentine's card before February 14th, as I like for him to see it first!! :-)
This is an 8" * 8" card - soooo much space to fill!! I did keep it fairly simple though, as I always do with male cards.
Here's a closeup of James - isn't he just totally adorable??
Stamps: LotV "James Big Heart" and "Love Sentiments"; sentiment on heart free with an old craft magazine;

Stamps: LotV "James Big Heart" and "Love Sentiments"; sentiment on heart free with an old craft magazine;
Media: Promarkers & Flexmarkers;
Papers: LotV "Country Gentleman" (plaid) and Dovecraft "Tilly Daydream" (hearts)
Supplies: ribbon from Hobbycraft; wooden heart buttons from my stash.
I got the "Love Sentiments" set free in a recent LotV promotion, and I was so inspired by all the cute little love stamps and postmarks that i stamped onto the front of the envelope as well (I've just shown a teeny corner, as Ihad to give this card to my beloved before I had chance to photograph it this morning , so his name is on the front!)
