Good Morning Everyone, I do hope that you are not experiencing to much snow and cold, I know maybe quite a few of you might be, anyway over at the Cards for Men we are having some "Love" as its almost Valentines Day and we want to see your cards for the men in your life, and this time we are being sponsered by Heather of "Freshly Brewed Designs"

and as she is having a blog hop over on her own blog I have offered to show you a link to her Challenge Blog,

I do hope you will go across and support her by clicking on the badge above, and this is what she says about herself and her company.

Hi. I am Heather Dennis. I am a homeschooling mother of 2 wonderful children, the wife of 12 years to the love of my life, a Christian and the owner of Fresh Brewed Designs. I have loved to draw and create ever since I was a child. My daughter has inherited my love of art and recently inspired me to start creating again.
All the images in my shop are hand drawn. I offer a wide range of images from coffee, cute and inspirational. I also love to create custom drawn images, so if you are looking for anything in particular, please feel free to drop me an email.

And she has offered 3 digi's as a prize for this "Valentines Day/Love" Challenge.

We were very lucky to have been given several images to play with and I chose this one for my card.

Isnt she gorgeous and shes called "Valentine Sweetheart" Ive printed her onto white card then used my copics to colour her, afterwards I used a deckle edged oval die to cut her out and used a larger one for the mount.

The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of red card and the first paper from the Bo Bunnys "Crush" Collection a pretty white background with red hearts on, for my strip down the middle is a piece of red card which has been run through the cuttlebug with a heart embossing folder and a heart punch down both sides, then around the middle I have used a wide satin red ribbon and attached it to the back of the first mount.

The mounted image was then positioned in the middle with the sentiment which is a Whimsey stamp at the bottom on the right hand side. To finish of I have stuck four heart gems down the sides on the two top corners.

Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will go and visit the Cards for Men Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the very talented team have created for your inspiration.
