Hugs & kisses...CR84FN47 week 2 43

Mona Pendleton | Saturday, February 4, 2012 @ 9:55 PM | , , ,

Hey there! Hope you are all enjoying the weekend! I'm here today to share a card that I made for my dear son, Jerry for Valentine's Day using the CR84FN47 color combination.
I kept things on the simple side, nothing too frilly or feminine IMO. I broke out PTI Friendship jar spring fillersFriendship jar and coordinating die. I filled the jar with candy hearts, an image that has never kissed an ink pad then colored it using a few shades of Copic markers.
Here is a photo of my sweet friend Stephanie Kraft and I that was taken by our waitress while dining at Roy's in Anaheim last weekend. Stephanie and I shared a hotel room together, we would part our ways after enjoying breakfast together around 7:30 am each day then meet up again around 7:00 pm, after the CHA show floor closed. Stephanie worked at the Sparkle Creations booth which is a rubber stamp company that sells some really darling images.
For sketch inspiration, I played along with the very first iSpy Sketch Challenge:
