Especially a good evening to my new followers and to everyone who takes the time to comment, it really does mean so much to me, I get emails and they go into a little folder and I get so excited when I see I have a new email :).
I have spent the whole weekend colouring and making cards so just need to get round to posting them too.
Today I have a heart easel card I have made for my DH for Valentines day, using LOTV Together Forever stamp. The heart and paper (an old K&Co pad which I have had forever and never used before) were cut using my hardly used CraftRobo, I just could not get my head around the software and the fact it doesn't always cut great the first time and it has sat collecting dust I bought it last year to make wedding invites for our daughter's wedding but never really used it but at last it has all fallen into place so watch out for more cards using it.
I have trouble with hair but pleased how this turned out, as mine is blonde and hubbie's is strawberry blonde, so not bad matches. The gold stuff around the edges of the picture is Perfect Pearls, I should have shaken to bottle first... doh...
Picture of inside with my new Marianne dies, I did chalk the ivy, bird houses and birds but does not show up too well on piccie. I am going to write on the red heart some suitably sloppy sentiment :).
Side view - coloured in Copics - sorry I did not make a note of the colours - note to self, please start writing the colours in the book I provided self with.
