*Stamps: Any (bonus points for using a heart image!) (I used the always controversial Sock Monkey for my card...I totally LOVE him...and of course, he is holding a heart!!)
*Paper: any + red...any shade of red (I went with Red, Black & White!)
*if you use a punch or die it must be heart shaped The only punch I used was the Scallop Edge...which looks the the top of a heart :) (am I reaching on that one???)
*if you use embossing folders...they must have a heart (no embossing folder for me...this is a SUO!)
*if you use an accessory it MUST be heart shaped or red (OK...so I really wanted to use some brads, but I am out of Real Red ones...sooo....I used the heart from Short & Sweet and made them my *brads* instead!!)
*if you use designer paper...yup you guessed it, red or hearts! (I made my own *designer paper* by stamping the heart from Sock Monkey repeatedly for the background!)
The Sock Monkey and all the hearts were watercolored with my SU! Inks and an Aquapainter. The heart that he is holding was stamped twice, cut out and popped up on dimensionals. I also added Dazzling Diamonds to that heart, and the small ones as well. The ribbon is from Jersey Ribbon Originals.
Speaking of hearts...did you check out the latest Verve release??? Guess who won the ENTIRE months release??? Yeppers...ME!!! I am SOOOOOOOO excited!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!!
