A Perfect Couple Valentine's Day card (Bugaboo image)

Happy Valentine's Weekend Crafty Friends,

Valentine's Day is almost upon us so I have got into full "Love" mode and created a few Valentine's Day cards. Not sure who for really haha, I only have one dearly beloved husband!! I think I'm going to give him this card as it's a little like us (with a poetic licence!!) The gorgeous twosome come from Bugaboo and I used this wordy paper that I have had for the longest time in my stash, I'm so happy to have finally come up with a way to use it. I also used a couple of my border dies to cut out the hearts and give the cloud border. 

Flourish with a Bling is selling all their products for $2 each this month, that's more than half off most products!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide.

Blue Dancing Couple card (Scrapper's Delights image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I love this time of year. It's summer here in Australia, school's just gone back, Valentine's day is coming, our footy season is about to start, my Birthday is in Feb which means crafty pressies yay! Easter is not too far away. So much to be excited about! And when it comes to cardmaking my favourite kinds are Valentine's Day, Spring and Easter - they're all about red and pink and other pretty colours, hearts and flowers, I love it!! But then after saying all that I've gone and made a royal blue card haha!

I cheated with this image (well, not really cheating, I'm not saying I coloured it) as I printed the coloured image instead of the digi. I loved how they coloured it so wanted to see how it would come out. The image is from Scrapper's Delights. Her dress looks so shiny doesn't it, wish I could colour this good!

Cute, Sweet, Gorgeous Girl card (Crafts & Me/Hannah Lynn image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Isn't this image beautiful from Hannah Lynn at Crafts and Me? I know I'm always saying how gorgeous my digis are but I guess that's why I bought them/chose them hehe.

I printed her out in a sepia colour so I could make her hair blonde. I can't seem to colour blonde hair when the image is black as I always want to make it darker. 

I have used a Flourish with a Bling Red Chloe pearl flourish. The set comes with 2 flourishes and some extra red pearls to add to your project and is only $2AUD for the whole set during February! I have also used an Elise flower and Jack olive green vine leaves. Everything in the store is $2 this month, I hope you'll click on our store name to check it out.
