The one I love.

With the rush of Valentines day now over in the shop I've got time to do a blog post about the card I made for my beloved.
The large Love in the bottom right corner is done using some free stamps I got with an issue of Simply Homemade, its a Kirstie Allsopp clear stamp set and I like how the four letters are all separate so I can place them vertically like on this card or horizontally or in a square.
The banner part of the card is make using some products from my latest Stampin up haul. The Banner blast stamp set and coordinating punch are both part of the Sale-A-Bration  promotion I placed the punched out flags on foam pads over some bakers twine which is stick with a bow at each end.
The card is stamped using my new  stampin up ink pads in Strawberry Slush, Baked Brown Sugar and Pistachio Pudding. I like the colour scheme it says valentine without being the traditional red giving it more a quirky fresh feel.
All in all I'm pleased with this card and it was well received.
