Another Pure Innocence Valentine 4 U

Today's Valentine was created just for fun using one of my favorite Pure Innocence digital images by Heather Ellis.  She has several in her Etsy Shop if you want to check it out.  They are on sale for only $1.65 each!

This is a standard size 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" card using Poppy Parade red as the base.  It coordinated perfectly with the designer paper I picked up recently at Michaels ... in the $1 bin, of course!  :)   It's an 8 x 8" pack of 12 sheets, called Melodies & Lace.   I've colored the little sweetie pie with Copic markers and added a little "love" on the side.

 

I hope your week is off to a great start!  Hugs & Smiles ~

RAWR Means I Love You! ♥

Doesn't this Valentine just make you *smile* ?!  :)  It is one of my new stamp sets from My Favorite Things ~ Little Loveosaurus.  Cute name, huh?   See below for more on how I acquired this adorable stamp set.  Lucky me! 

Can you see that I've paper pieced the loveosaurus?  I know they are rather funky colors, but he does coordinate with the polka dot background paper.

Can you see the little boy peeking out from inside the costume?  ;)  hee hee  I've stamped the olive green dinosaur using a tiny heart background stamp and Versamark ink for a subtle pattern.

 Now, I know you're anxious to hear how I "acquired" this cute set... I WON it!  Seriously? Yes!  I left a comment on Megan Lock's blog ~ Megan Lock Designs a couple months ago when she announced her *exciting* BABY news.   I still cannot believe ALL the GOODIES she sent me!  Oh. My. Stamping. Goodness!!!   Check it out . . . 

and the *awesome* card handmade by Megan herself! . . .

I've been wanting to share this with you and I'm happy you stopped by! : ) This weekend, I've been busy around the house and also creating VALENTINE cards for an *extra* special ETSY customer.   Stay tuned and I'll be sharing them with you this week, ok?   Now, I better scoot and get something done!   Have a *wonderful* day!
