Hi! This card was made for 3 challenges: today's Limited Supply Challenge: NO WHITE OR vanilla; today's Stalker/Chaser Visualize Verse; and Sharon's, (notimetostamp) Friday Challenge...
Since Sharon's was a "Long and Low," I decided to stick with the Valentine's theme and use the papers that were already on my stamping table...
(Yes, little Spittie Kittie fell asleep on them, and I didn't get to clean them up, so my self imposed "challenge" to use what's left out, had to be enforced! LOL!) Drat that cat!
The Green bird was stamped in Basic Black, outlined with marker and then I added the dots. (I used the heart from Short & Sweet for the birds' wings!) The Regal Rose bird was stamped in Basic Black, outlined in Rose Red and cut out.
The Heart was stamped in Basic Black onto Pretty in Pink, outlined in marker, and the flower was colored in with Regal Rose marker.
The scalloped circle was done with a Marvy Mega Punch. The circles were cut with the Coluzzle.
The border was stamped in Basic Black with the small flourish from Priceless. I added hearts and extra dots with the Rose Red marker.
I made the Build A Brads with the heart from Holiday Blitz!
