Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! This post challenge will start before Valentine's Day however it needn't be a Valentine's card. Think anniversary, birthday, and friendship, too. So starting February 11 for 2 weeks #475, the theme challenge at My Time To Craft challenge blog is "all you need is love".
MTTC's #475 challenge Design Team inspiration=
Pink, Red, Gray, and Green Love Card: (card 1)
Design notes:
A. pink cardstock base is left side fold and 1/2 sheet for dimensions 4.25" high and 5.5" wide (Pen + Gear)
B. the 2 designer patterned papers are from The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby) paper pad collection "mint berry' from 2016--!!! (I've been hoarding this! Out of 80 sheets sized at 4.5" x 6.5", I still have 63 full sheets AFTER making this card and only 3 scraps of different sizes!! :))
C. red ink edging on papers
D. embellishments are from stash; note the 2 white sheet ribbon pieces dangling from the silver duo glitter hearts
E. a die-cut heart in my stash served as the stencil to trace the designer paper heart
