for the two of us

                 

This is the card that I have made for my Valentine and there is no shortage of challenges that I can enter this one into, so here goes:

'Valentine': Double Dutch Challenge, The Pink Elephant, Creative Card Crew, Everybody Art Challenge, Created By Hand Challenge and Dutch Dare.

'Romance': Mixed Media Monday, Gingersnap Creations.

'Love': Simon Says Stamp Challenge, By The Cute & Girly.

'Include one or more flowers': Theme Thursday.

'Hearts & Flowers': Polka Doodles.

'Have a heart': Daring Card Makers.

'Multifold': Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge (in the ribbons).

'Love is in the air': Lots To Do.

This is one of the quickest cards that I ever made I think! It just fell out of my head and onto the paper.

Because of the black paper this card was quite difficult to photograph, so I will include some close ups here. Now I am wondering whether it is too girly.

Papers: Graphic 45 ~ Le Romantique: Sweetheart of Mine and Daydreams.

There is lots of gold embossing going on and it is quite sparkly, you might want to click on the photos for a closer look.

The crumpled up ribbon came out of my scrap box looking like that, so I left it. Added some old buttons which I partly embossed with gold and then added some stickles.

The flower has been spritzed with glimmer mist.

                                

The word 'Love' is a Prima stamp which I embossed with gold and the music is a Tim Holtz stamp also embossed with gold.

I hope he likes it!

Thank you for looking.
