This is a card that I made for a Valentine's Day swap. I used white cardstock from Recollections and inked the edges with Antique Linen. The sentiment is from the Tiny Wishes set from Stampin Up.
I ran the kraft paper (PTI) through my Cuttlebug with a cool folder from Stampin Up called Square Lattice. I saw my demonstrator use it on one of her cards and I had to have it, of course. I think it made the kraft paper look like burlap, which was a really nice effect. I am going to use it again like this.
The frame is from the Holiday Frames & Tags Cricut cartridge. The pretty pink paper is also from Stampin Up. I laced through some sheer ribbon and stamped an image of Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth. The stamp is from the Jane Austen collection from Papertrey Ink. I love this stamp set. Pride and Prejudice reminds me of my wonderful hubby.
I am entering this card in the Fantabulous (gotta love that word:) Cricut Challenge Blog. Be My Valentine.
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice, 1811
THis is so pretty, I really like the way you laced the ribbon through!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty and I love the silhouette. TFS
ReplyDeleteNicely done. I like layering and the non traditional Valentines Day colors. The blue ribbon really makes it pop.

Love, love, love this!! I can just imagine what they are saying to each other. Most likely he's telling her he loves her most ardently. :)
ReplyDeleteI saw your profile where you said you are married to your own Mr. Darcy and that is what this card reminds me of! So Romantic and Pretty! LOVE it!
