Happy Valentine's Day--#tgifc458

This week has been a big one as far as love is concerned here in my home!  February 1st was my husband's and my 49th wedding anniversary. Yesterday, was my husband's birthday--just like our anniversary number, it is close to a milestone one.  When I saw this week's TGIF Challenges color challenge, I decided just to keep going with all the love feelings and create a Valentine's Day card.  The color challenge of Real Red, Bubble Bath and Vanilla is perfect for one.

This card features the Country Bouquet punch (#160382) with the greeting from the coordinating Country Bouquet stamp set (#160377).  The background layer is the gold and white plaid pattern from the Most Adored Specialty designer series paper pack (#162976), which is a Free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 purchase, now through the end of this month.  I used a Blending Brush (#153611) to blend Bubble Bath ink into the paper to cover the white.  The flowers were created out large Real Red hearts and small Bubble Bath hearts punched out with the Country Bouquet punch.  They are backed with Very Vanilla die cuts using a die from the Cheerful Daisies dies (#161296).


The greeting was stamped in VersaMark ink, heat embossed with Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder and die cut using a Stylish Shapes die (#159183).  A splattering of Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136), a Real Red layer and a Very Vanilla card base complete the card.



Wishing you a Happy Valentine's Day with plenty of chocolate!
