Be Mine


Hi there! Today I have a mixed media style Valentine's Day card to share featuring a combination of a variety of products. I started with pretty paper from 13arts:
 I added texture using Prima texture paste along with the MFT Petal Pattern stencil. Once dry, I added color using ColourArte's Silks Bolivian Blue and Teal Zircon Acrylic Glazes along with ColourArte's Teal Zircon Primary Elements:

I embellished with a glass glitter coated die cut grungeboard heart and pretty flowers from my stash:
For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the current cardabilities sketch challenge:
and for color inspiration, I joined along with the current House of Cards challenge:
Thanks so much for visiting ~ I hope you enjoyed my card.
Be Sweet ;)

    Hi Mona, I've been away and now trying to catch up on my favourite blogs. Love these two cards, the vibrant magenta with the stitching and fabric and this gorgeous blue/green with silver. Always classy, always inspirational. TFS
