Please don't think I'm dark and twisty (yes, I'm a huge Grey's Anatomy fan!) but recently, I've been preoccupied with little black hearts. You see, while organizing my chipboard, I came across the cutest little hearts from Magistical Memories and thought it would be cool to create some non-traditional Valentine's with them. So, I broke into my new Pitch Black Adirondack Acrylic Paint Dabber and went to town painting little black hearts - along with miniature labels and anything else I could find!
Here is the 3 x 3 card I created using yet another sheet of CTMH Notebook paper (isn't this a versatile pack?), a cute scrap of polka dot ribbon (manufacturer unknown), and a few coordinating epoxy stickers from Studio 18. I like this card for its versatility - it is quick and fun to create, and it can be used as both a Valentine's card and as an All Occasion card!
My exploration of challenge blogs continued this week, as you will discover if you check out my ever-expanding and newly reorganized Links section. Here are the ones I am entering today's card in - a few of my favorites plus a few new finds!
