Loved this sketch by Verve Diva, Teresa. Perfect for another Valentine's Day card....surprise, surprise LOL!I'm still addicted to the Verve "U" die so I just had to use it again on this card. I created the background on the blushing bride paper by stamping the love sentiment from Verve's You And I set and heat embossed it so it would show up a bit more.
This PTI doily die was a great one to layer on and a touch of ruffled ribbon finished things off.
I had a wonderful birthday weekend :) Got to sleep in on Saturday till 9:00 a.m. (3 hours later than mid-week), had lots of phone calls (probably spent 2 hours on the phone when it was all said and done), lots of birthday wishes on Facebook, my daughter played amazingly well at her piano recital and won the gold medal for the scale competition, we had sushi for dinner (ymmmm!!), the family got me 50 long stemmed roses and hubby got me a Kindle Fire. Think I'm ready to tackle the 50's full force now LOL!
Have a great day and thank you for sharing my birthday with me via this blog too :) Loved reading your comments.
