Love you much!

Hi everyone, hope your week is going well so far.

I've been shopping and got in a load of sweets and chocolate for my valentine's gifts and general treats, and it is taking ALL my willpower not to have a nibble....

Today I want to share with you a cute little card that I'll be giving to my close girl friends and girl family members.

I've used one of the Love Notes and stamped the heart from the Love You Much stamp set then picked out a few details with my white gel pen.


*Happy Accident time*

Now, you'll notice the 'you' coming from behind the heart... I'd love to say it was done on purpose but it wasn't lol. I stamped the 'Love (heart) you' sentiment from Sealed with a kiss and planned on having some punched out hearts scattered around but changed my mind last minute and covered the first part of the wording with the big heart from the Love You Much set.... and I like!


I then went around the whole card with some faux stitching with one of the Stampin' Markers and had a go at doing the eyelet border which I think looks fab, will have to try it more often! Reminds me of pretty lace.



I got to use my Hearts 'o plenty wheel for the trillionth time too, I *heart* it. (Geddit? lol)

Will hopefully get a chance to share the valentine's treats I've made to go with them soon (full of the chocolate and sweets I WILL resist) - well, if I say it over and over it might come true...

Thanks for stopping by,
take care.
