Inspired by Love

WELL! It's Thursday, cold, snowy (just for part of the morning) and I am slowly getting caught up creatively because I now have a NEW CAMERA!! WOOT!!  I ended up with a Canon G12 since you really can't go wrong with the brand and it's what I like to call a hybrid.  It's not a full professional SLR nor a basic Point and Shoot, but inbetween. : )  Thank you to everyone who helped with my decision and beyond.

So, to start off, I want to share with you a card made with MFT's Insipired by Love set that was released in January. Such a versitile set that can be used as is or even perfect for some shabby chic/mixed media art.

I also used MFT's Die-namic die Hearts a Plenty.  This is a great triple die and perfect for all your heart needs! I used Paper Studio dp and SU! French Script for the center panel. I popped up the heart, cupid, and stamped and cut out 'Love.'  I finished off the card with some swirl pearls which I used my pink Copic Marker to give the white some color and some lace ribbon from No Time to Stamp? Ribbon Store.  Cocoa Momento ink for Cupid and Tim Holtz Distress ink in Fire Brick for the sentiment.

But since we are on the subject of love and Valentines Day is just around the corner, I thought I would share with you my Valentine... really it's 3 Valentines!

I hope you all have a Valentine(s) as wonderful as mine to celebrate with next week!!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a warm Thursday!
