XOXOXO

XOXOXO's to everybody!
It is getting closer and closer to the season of love! So I decided to create my first Valentine of the season with our beautiful colors that Mona has selected for our new challenge over at
  CR84FN Color Challenge #70:
Aqua ~ Tan ~ Lt. Yellow


I just LOVE these bright cheery colors right now because our days have been gray and gloomy around here!!!!

And this is my card:


I just got this new exclusive for SimonSays stamp set and matching dies. It is called Lots of Hearts. I stamped a bunch of the different hearts included in this set with Mustard Seed and Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. I cut them out with their matching dies and layered them on the card with different layers of foam tape. Before I attached the hearts to the card I added this beautiful lace and satin ribbon! I tied a pretty bow and added 2 crystal stick pins(Maya Road). The little tag was cut with the Tiny Tags (Paper Trey Ink). XOXO was stamped with the Love Notes (Verve) stamp set. The beautiful papers are from Follow Your Heart(MME). The papers were all distressed and sponged with Antique Linen Distress Ink before I adhered them together.

Now who should I give this to? Hmmm....

Please visit our CR84FN Color Challenge and check out all of the wonderful creations from the other design team members, as well as our guest designer..Lisa Snowdy from "Adventures in Paperland"!

I love the variety of hearts you've used! I think what's most impressive about this card is how you've put many textures and patterns together while still keeping a sense of simplicity with the color scheme.
