Well I was going to pretend I did not notice that my hand rocked the stamp when I stamped forever and not mention it to you.... But I just could not live in denial and had to admit my wrongdoing... However I had so much time invested in the card that I AM going to pretend it was part of my original design, to give a soft and romantic look!
The red frame is the negative of a nestie that I had cut for one of my shakers, I used crackle medium, white and red paints to get that *old frame* look. the heart was a watercolor I did and hated so i painted that too and added crackle medium and red glitter paint. the paisleys were also scraps from when I punched them to use the insides for my shaker mix, I painted the charm red and added the fiber.
Vicky I am happy to say Teddy is finally back from his trip to Media Pa. to visit my brother, and he brought his cousin with him, Little Adam. They are having such a good time together and Little adam has really put happiness back into Teddy's eyes, you can see it right?
Well thanks for looking at my scrappy valentine!!
