A Little Love

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Half-way to the weekend - yahoo!!  I hope your week is going well.  Today I have a cute little project I designed for an upcoming class.  With the end of January fast-approaching, we all need to start planning for Valentine's Day; so I thought I'd show you this cute little card I designed based on this week's sketch challenge over at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  Here is the sketch:




And here is my simple little card:

Love note for HSS 151 featuring the Cross My Heart Stamp set

Now I have to admit, it took great willpower not to add bling to this card.  I designed it with a male recipient in mind, so I resisted the urge to add a little sparkle highlight to the heart, but let me tell you it wasn't easy!  I love this new stamp set from the Spring Catalogue.  It has such a great variety of sentiments and images, perfect for just about any occasion.  In case you missed it, here is the entire set:

Cross My Heart Clear-Mount Stamp Set
Cross My Heart WM 126580 ($27.95) or CM 126582 ($20.95)

Add it to your wishlist...you know you want to!!
