I got tired of making red and white Valentine cards, so I changed over to blue and white which just happens to be my favorite colors. I don't have the Valentine blues this year as my DH is back home from deployment.
I LOVE the heart image from SU Punch Potpourri as it has text and an image on it. I sparkled it up with dazzling diamonds and matted it with the SU heart embosslit.
I love the framed ef's, so I used Grace's Frame and added some bling around the framing. Used the MS heart border punch in the middle with a row of bling. Added a sparkly sentiment and matted with oval and scallop oval punches.
The hearts and sentiment were popped up on dimensionals.
Thanks SO MUCH for visiting and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Well, you sure have a huge need for this type of card Pamzi. Hmmmm.... . He knows, Pamzi, he knows about the closet! Lol! (Ya know how long it takes to find the "right" song for you Sistah?) Worth it!
Pam, your work is beautiful. I love those gems in the embossing- so elegant! Ok, go back to your cowboy, and be good, ya hear? Hugz.....

I was going to say, Pamzi, how could you have the Valentine blues when your Valentine is not only in the same hemisphere but the same house as you this year????? This is so beautiful, though, and I think it is ample evidence that blue should be added as a regular color to the Valentine color palette!! Red can definitely get tiring. So restful to see a beautiful blue creation for the day of love. You've framed everything so wonderfully and I love how you added such pretty bling to glam it up! Nicely done, my friend!

OK, this is where you lost your marbles and got hit with a case of the blues. And I see it all happened the day you had to let go of the crown. Funny the timing of that. It was also the day I headed off to my conference in the big city which is probably why I missed commenting on this card. When I saw it on a brief run through the gallery when I got home, I was likely too shocked to make a comment as I could see all of the diamonds from the QFTD crown (which were missing when it finally got to me) were stuck on the front of your gorgeous blue Valentine card. Very unique card Pamzi. Like you. Good thing I'm laid back and didn't have you sent to the chopping block for stealing all the jewels from the crown. If you didn't make such wonderful cards that are so inspiring, I probably would have uttered the immortal phrase "off with her head" when I had the chance. But alas, I missed my chance. Later BBB & OPP. (Batty Blue Buddy blah blah blah...) (Must add: love the embossing folder and all the fabulous punching. And, I laughed out loud when I clicked on Pat's link to Tim singing to you...)
