This Day Shall Be A Love Day.


I love cleaning my cupboards.  I found this faux leather heart I'd made months ago.  I love the look of this technique.  I decided to "use it up" as part of the many red, white and blue challenges on right now.  The blue was a base I found when hunting for some blue scraps.  I was originally going to make the scallops blue but this was serendipitous.  I found the corners when looking for a small tag for a sentiment and liked how they filled in the "white" space.  Then sentiment actually fell on the card when I was shuffling papers around.  Normally I don't have scrapbooking stuff out when making cards so I know it was just calling to be used.  I can assure you, it wouldn't be used in my scrapbooks - that particular sentiment is not my style.  It came in a Creative Memories pack that I loved.  Now I just really wish I had a casual, backyard wedding this summer so I could use this card.

Challenges this Card Meets:
Friends of Speedy TV - Red, White and Blue
Creatalicious - Anything Goes
Critter Sketch - Sparkly - used Glitter embossing powder on the heart.
