What, you say? A Valentine Card in the middle of Christmas season? Well, I HAD to play with my new images from American Art Stamp! This is my first AAS card as a member of the Design Team -- yay! :)
I inked up this Couple in Love image with Top Boss Watermark, then I heat embossed it with black detail embossing powder. I watercolored the image with an aquapainter and inks, then I sponged around the edges with Colorbox Lemon Grass ink. I used my Cuttlebug and Swiss Dots folder on the background cardstock. The paper is from the Loves Me collection by Imaginisce.
Although this is a Valentine stamp, it really can be used for any occasion. I made this card for a wedding we'll be attending this month. I love the sentiment -- perfect for a couple in love! :)
I'll be back to my regularly scheduled programming tomorrow -- just in time for the ATS Wednesday Challenge! Thanks for taking the time to visit today -- I really do appreciate it! Have a fantastic Tuesday! :)
