Valentine's Challenge

Marlou from Scrapping with Love is giving away some scrummy blog candy. The challenge is simply to make a Valentines Card and to include three things: (1) it must have a red or pink embellishment, (2) ribbon, (3) the word "love".

Well, I think I've managed to meet the requirements. I've used Doodlebug DP and Bazzill Bling embossed with Cuttlebug hearts on the actual card with a length of ribbon, from Ribbon Oasis. I've used Tilda blowing kisses and coloured her with Brushables with a little glamour dust on her petticoat and wings. She has then been mounted on Bazzill Bling c.s. and fixed to the card with foam pads. A sentiment from Pink Petticoat was attached to the back of the image. Finally a Doodlebug Jellishment and two copper brads were added as finishing touches.

Sam wasn't very well and didn't quite make it to the bathroom so spent most of the early hours of this morning trying to clean the landing carpet, the carpet in his bedroom, washing bedclothes and cleaning him up!!! Eventually got to bed at 4.30 am then was woken at 9.15 this morning by Sam asking me if I was getting up because his tummy was empty and he was hungry!!! Got to love 'em!! Anyway, at least he's feeling better. Got to try and phone the Carpet Cleaner in a minute and order Sam a new mattress as his is ruined....oh the fun of being a Mother!! Back to business now, here's a card I made during the week with one of my new Whipper Snapper arrivals. I don't know how often I will use this stamp but it was a case of "ooh, it's so sweet, I've just got to have it!!" I've coloured the snai...
