Love is in the air...

Since Valentine's Day is close, I decided to take a risk and make a few cards for sale "in advance". I usually make cards based on the order & people's requests, but this time the gorgeous Penny Black images were just there, looking at me, and asking to be used... I couldn't resist and say no! ;-) Even if I used the little cuties only on a few of the cards, they were definitely my inspiration anyhow! 

Below are a few of the cards are made. More to follow in the coming days... 










Ingredients: Penny Black Every Which Way stamps, Anita's Square Quality Cream Cards, some black cardstock from my stash, Neenah Solar White paper for stamping, Copics for colouring, Glossy Accents, Stickles, red ribbon, gems & little hearts from my stash. Backing paper: 1st card - K&Company Designer Mat Pad - Julianne Vintage, 2nd card - made from white cardstock, with use of Barn Door Distress Ink by Ranger & Floral Fantasy Cuttlebug embossing folder. Apron Lace Fiskars border punch.

I would like to enter these into the following challenges:


Totally Gorjuss - Love!
Penny Black - Love and Marriage
Creative Creations Challenges - It must be love
Inky Chicks - Valentine or Anniversary
Forever Friends - Monthly Challenge (Animals/Butterflies/Birds)
Inky Impressions - Love
Cute Card Thursday - Love Struck

And what happened with the "sale"? I am proud to say that all cards sold out in just one day, and I was asked to make more! I did have a plan B, however... I would simply have a stash of Valentine's Day cards ready for the coming years for my Other Half ;-)
