Two days two posts!!



Hey I am on a roll!! Two posts in two days!  I decided to do the Saturday Sketch Challenge from Stamping 411 and use my new border and corner punches. Luckily, they also posted a very very helpful tutorial which took the mystery out of these punches for me!  This is actually a small card, just under 4" square.  I used the border piece as a card front!  

I don't have any one to send any "masculine" valentines cards too (poor me...haha) but I like trying out some alternate color combos!  Can you believe January is almost over?  Yay!  Just closer to spring!


stamps:  Out of the Box
cardstock:  Whisper White, Soft Suede
DSP:  Christmas Cocoa
ink:  Soft Suede, Bashful Blue, Ruby Red
tools:  aqua painter, Scallop corner Punch, scallop border punch, three heart punch
