Challenge #369 - For the one you love - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, well one month gone and we are already into February and this is the month of love so its only right that this weeks theme should be

For the one you love

and we are going to leave it open to you to interpretate as not everyone has a boyfriend or hubby, so it can be for anyone in your family or even friends.
And you will find beautiful images over at The Paper Shelter and there's lot to choose from to. Our Sponsors are and as always our sponsers are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website.

But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.
And for my own card I chose to use this image




This young man is titled "Valentino" and you will find it here, I printed him onto white card then used my copic pens to colour him, afterwards I used one of my rectangle dies to cut him out and layered him up onto a larger diecut in red card.
The base card is 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of the same red card, on top of this I have used the backing paper that comes with the image and again you will find it here. Before I placed my image on top I used a large heart doily and placed in the center then wrapped a love ribbon around the middle of it and stuck it to the back of the first mount.
The mounted image was then placed on top with a sentiment which is from my stash (rubber stamp) that's been stamped and then placed on top of another piece of red card and placed in the bottom right hand corner. To finish of I have used some red Nuvo drops and a punch of red roses which were stuck in the top left hand corner.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
