Challenge #189 - "Be my Valentine" - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, well its only 10 days to Valentines Day so I thought it was time to get ahead with that special card for hubby or boyfriend so the there for this week is "Be my Valentine" and The Paper Shelter has some fabulous image to play with so do go and pay them a visit.

http://www.thepapershelter.com/index.php?main_page=index

As always our very generous sponsor is Veronica and Pedro of The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. and if you use one of the images, papers or printables you will receive the whole amount but even if you dont you will still receive 3 digi's of your own choice.
And here is the card I created for this challenge


This beautiful image is called "I Miss You" and you will find her here, and I printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, I then cut her out with a circle die and I mounted her onto a scalloped pink circle diecut.
The base card is 6.50"x 6.50" white card with the backing paper that came with the image and you will find it here. I then layed a heard doily in the bottom left hand corner and placed the mounted image in the middle of the white scalloped circle on the backing paper. To finish of I die cut two butterflies in pink card and then stamped a sentiment onto white card and cut that out with a heart die and placed this onto a scalloped heart die cut to. The final flourish are the pearls in all four corners, the heart doily is my stash item.
Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the very talented Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you to will want to take part in the "Be my Valentine" Challenge.
