The QFTD is Susan aka One4Joy. What an awesome gallery. She has such unique, beautiful, fun, and spiritual cards. I went through half her gallery and came upon this card I wanted to case. I would love to spend more time in her gallery as time permits. homecoming...O4J by One4Joy at Splitcoaststampers
I needed a Valentine for my 6 month old DGD. Sure, I know she'll really be pleased. I'm hoping it doesn't head straight for her mouth. LOL
I kept Susan's sketch but moved my rick rack to the opposite side. I didn't tear my card but used a cutter for the eding on my image layer. I thought that was best for a sweet, baby Valentine.
Then, I added a flower at the top where her crown and hearts were.
Of course, by the time I was through, my peach colored flower looked much too orange. It is really almost the color of my cardstock.
I am entering another card into yesterday's WT308 challenge to have a heart on your project.
Susan, hope your reign as Queen is very special.

Aw, this is so cute for your new grandbaby. Her mommy will save this for sure and then you will get all new oohs and aahs.
Pretty flower on this beauty Benz. What a wonderful case of Queen Susan.

What a pretty flower and I love this layout. I think it is better that the flower doesn't match exactly. Great card.

Great card B-B-B-Benzi. Love that flower in the corner and that sweet sentiment at the top. You must still have at least one punch in your stash. Good thing! Sell them all off and you'll be out of office in a flash. I see by her comment that Pamzi is still clinging to her former status as a Queen. Getting close to falling over the edge isn't she?!? RYPH (if you have any left)

Benzi!! You are just so old!!! I can't imagine having a grandchild! Just how many facelifts and tucks have you had!! More facelifts than punches you say!! Well, I can't say I'm shocked!!! Lovely card - gorgeous flowers - but Benzi - that avatar must be 30 years old!!;)

From the comment you made on this card, Debzi, I see your brainiac equipment has failed you once again. I guess it is your eyesight...I remember when your teeth went a few years ago. Remember that ordeal? Everyone can see what a young woman I am...just out of my teen-age years. Just hope you age as well...but you won't. :lol:
