And I thought making a card without blue was bad
How about purple?

I think you have a very CLEVER idea. After the challenge is done, just mount it on a red card. I won't tell anyone.

I skipped the purple and went with black and gold. Gold embossed the heart from Gentle times and used French Script background. I'm pleased with it.

I used purple, but to me this looks more like a wedding card than a Valentine's card. Oh, well.

Jodylynn...... that is a supercute card. Did you use Quickutz on it?
I went with classic black and white. I need to figure out how to make it small enough to be a thumbnail, but get larger when you click on it. My scanner is making things look fuzzy.

Blue Valentine!
Okay, there has to be a better way to resize than using a powerful photo program, but it worked, so I'm back for another challenge!
Here's my Blue Valentine

Okay, this turned out super gaudy and not what I wanted - but it is what it is. I'm a slow stamper and would like to make comments on all of your wonderful cards but I'll have to come back later and comment.

ok, I'm having trouble uploading. It says the size limits is 640x480 and mine is 480x640 (just reversed). Do I scan it sideways?

No, just make sure that the bottom number is 480. The top number may not be the full number. For example, mine was 4?? X 480.

Have trouble posting this one. The back to the birdies is Only Orange, although it looks red in the scan. Sorry it's sideways - it wouldn't load otherwise.
