Love Sweet Love Valentine's Day card

Hi Crafty Friends,

When I have a few cards to blog at the same time, I always seem to leave my favourite card to the end. 

This was an image I printed out years ago when I first started colouring with Copics. I was going through my stash of old b&w images and came upon this one that is perfect for Valentine's Day! Sometimes black and white images don't stand out that much until you colour them and that was the case with this one, once it was coloured it's really cute and fun and I wondered why I hadn't coloured it years ago lol.

A True Love Story Never Ends Valentine's Day card

Hi Crafty Friends,

This is my only "no image" Valentine's Day card so far. I do love these old papers though so the card came together quite quickly.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

A Gem of a Challenge - Have a heart 

As you like it - Stitching - my favourite stitching is faux pas as I can use ribbon with stitching much easier than getting out my sewing machine. 

Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper - Anything goes with patterned paper 

Creatalicious - Anything goes with optional: love/anniversary/thinking of you  

Creative Inspirations - Love is in the air or red & pink 

Cute Card Thursday - Love 

Deep Ocean - Love is all around 

Simon Says Stamp (Mon) - Love is in the air 

Simon Says Stamp (Wed) - It must be love

Southern Girls - 3 or more patterned papers 

Thank you so much for dropping by and extra special thanks to my lovely followers and visitors that leave some beautiful comments for me, they warm my heart.

Smile Love Bear with Hearts card (Crafty Sentiments image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I've been excited to colour up this cute little bear from Crafty Sentiments for a while now. It doesn't say Valentine but I don't think it needs to with the amount of hearts everywhere! I could use it for any occasion really though I'm thinking. 

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

A Gem of a Challenge - Have a heart

As you like it - Stitching - my favourite stitching is faux pas as I can use die cuts (sun and ground borders) with stitching much easier than getting out my sewing machine.

Crafty Sentiments - Anything goes

The Crazy Challenge - Love

Creatalicious - Anything goes with optional: love/anniversary/thinking of you  

Cute Card Thursday - Love 

Deep Ocean - Love is all around 

Simon Says Stamp (Mon) - Love is in the air 

Simon Says Stamp (Wed) - It must be love 
Southern Girls - 3 or more patterned papers

I hope you have a lovely weekend,
