Sending Love

Three Hearts
I created this card based on the "Compose a Card" challenge a couple weeks ago from Becky Oehlers. I absolutely love the result, though I didn't get it uploaded in time to participate - oh well, it was super fun to try. My favorite part of this card is how the ribbon turned out wrapped around three times. I think I'll use that again :-)

Ink: SU Mauve Mist
Stamps: PTI Mixed Messages
Misc: SU Heart to Heart punch, Nicole Crafts ribbon, PTI Vintage Button

Pink!
This card was fun because it's my first use of the Papertrey Guidelines II set for what I intended it for - making my own patterned paper!
See all those pink swirly images in the bottom layer? Those are all individually stamped. It took awhile, but I made almost a half sheet of this paper, so you might see it again soon :-)
The heart stamp is one from when I was little - it's probably the first time it's shown up on a card...Yes I save things that long!
It's a little hard to see, but there is stitching along the edge of the first layer as well.
Card Details:
Paper: PTI White, SU Pink Passion, SU Pretty in Pink
Ink: SU Pink Passion, SU Pretty in Pink
Stamps: PTI Guidelines II, Posh Impressions Small Brush Art Heart
Misc: Nestabilities Circle and Scallop Circle, Sewing machine and white thread

Be Mine
It was cute as a little embellishment but I wasn't sure what to do with it - it wasn't quite right. I know I wanted a sentiment, but none seemed to be the right size.
And then inspiration hit in the middle of the night - it needed a border. And so the faux stitching was added and "be mine" became the perfect hit. I have always like how Heather Nichols adds the sponged white ink on her cards, so I gave that a try as well.
Hopefully you like the result - it's sort-of a new technique for me.
Card Details:
Paper: SU Kraft, SU Shimmery White, PTI Raspberry Fizz
Ink: SU Chocolate Chip, SU White, and SU Pink Passion
Stamps: SU So Many Sayings, PTI Polka Dot Basics II
Misc: PTI white Vintage Button, PTI white Button Twine, SU pink organza ribbon, CPE felt heart, Labels One Nestabilities
