Love and Layers

Hello!  I'm much later posting this than I had planned, but Blogger has been extremely naughty and hasn't been letting me upload any of my photos. 

So many challenges at the moment obviously centre around Valentines Day. As I'm not the slushy-mushy type I find these a bit difficult to do, but when the latest Tildas were released and I saw this little cutie, I knew I'd have to change the habits of a lifetime if I wanted to use this gorgeous stamp!

I coloured Tilda with Copics and splodged Pumice Stone DI around the edges of the image mat using a sponge and the tiny Stempleglede grunge stamp.  Pretty much everything else has had a good doin' with DI too. 

I've used Magnolia papers and sandwiched between them is a layer of tulle. I put a layer of white Bazzill under the image; the border was made with a Martha Stewart PATP punch and again, had Pumice Stone ink liberally splodged all over it.

I wrapped some red twine around the card and used this to tie on the hearts charm.  And I had to add some flowers, from Wild Orchid Crafts of course.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Magnolia Stamp Lovers - Use Twine
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes + love (optional)
Magnolialicious Challenge - picture inspiration
CES Challenge Blog - Lots of Layers (at least 3)

And before I go, I must tell you about our new challenge over at Sweet Stampin'. This week we're asking you for Clean and Simple designs.  Hop over here to see what my lovely teamies have made to inspire you!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Hugs
