Yes, I really meant it when I said I couldn't stay out of Vicky Gould's gallery. As today's honored Featured Stamper, Vicky is in the spotlight with her fabulous cards and gallery!
This is my 3rd card for the challenge and I loved her card here: Love is caring . . .Vicky Gould by Vicky Gould at Splitcoaststampers. And although mine is not even close to being as pretty, Vicky's layout and concept served me very well for a card swap for which I needed to start preparing. I had already purchased the supplies, but had absolutely NO idea what I was going to do for my first V-day card.
I changed the colors, substituted the mesh CB folder in place of paisley, used a small dose of Markie's Mom dots, torn edges, stamp edge scissors and rhinestones to mix things up a little.
I'm very pleased with the texture, but not sure if I'm pleased with the card as a whole. I guess I'll know at the shoebox swap if no one opts to make this card, eh?!!!
Thanks, Vicky, for the inspiration! Thanks, Faith, for filling in this week and providing a wonderful challenge. And thanks to all who take the time to look!
Have a wonderful week!
PS - I did manage to get some chores completed and the laundry is done. Phew! I wasn't a complete slacker today ...

Oh my, I love it - love the deeper pinks, the CB folder, that little crystal on top of that brad (I'll be casing that for sure!) - the colors - it's amazing! Thanks for playing 3x's!
