Today is our February Duel, and our lovely hostess is Deb. She sent a wonderful card kit, it was full of images, patterned paper, and embellishments. Our theme is "Let Me Call you Sweetheart!"
In the kit we had a choice of several images and sentiments. The one I chose is for a general Valentine's Day card. As you can tell, I kinda went overboard with the embellishments. The cording that was in the kit was to thick to thread thru the charm so I unraveled it, using only one strand.
My Valentine this year was my daughter. She and I cooked dinner, and had a relaxing evening.

ReplyDeleteOh, Michelle, I don't think you went overboard on embellishments at all!! It's a WONDERFUL card. The pretty papers are really showcased in your layout and the adorable image is colored sweetly. I like the bling on the heart! I was trying to thread the love charm through the twine too, but gave up. Duh, I should have been smart like you and thinned down the twine! Love your card!
