The ladies over at Heart 2 Heart and Color My Heart Color Dare Challenges are sponsoring a joint challenge with the theme of "Share the Love" in the colors Black, White Daisy and any or all of the reds: Cranberry, Pomegranate, or Ruby. This was my cue to break out my new Artistry Cricut cartridge and make a Valentine for my daughter following this sketch from Try Stamping - or Not - on Tuesday:
All the shapes can be found on page 10. After cutting the large heart, I covered it (and the paw cut out) with strips cut from Snowhaven, La Vie En Rose, Charlotte, the retired version of Cranberry Fundamentals paper, and Cranberry cardstock. I edged some of the strips with black ink to create the super thin black lines. Here is the inside:

Wow, I LOVE this card. It is really so adorable and I love how you used the striped B&T from snowhaven and replaced some of the prints. So cute.
ReplyDeleteThis card is really wonderful inside and out! I love the paw prints as round elements and the paper pieced heart is so cleverly done. We are so happy to having you sharing your talent with us again at the Color Dare, Hansi!
