CR84FN23

Hello ... are you well?
I managed to get a little time to do a card for this weeks challenge at CR84FN ... (in between the usual household chores ... administering eye drops 4 hourly and taking my husband out so he doesn't get bored) ...  Such pretty colours again this week and once again the inspirational picture and quote are beautiful ...



See what I mean ... how could I resist this colour palette?
So here we are my card 


The black and cream papers are all from SU "Love Letter" (how I adore these papers) and I think the pink and cream text paper are K & Co ... the pink heart on there is done using the masking technique ...
I used my Sizzix to cut out a heart template, placed it over my DP and using a sponge ... filled it in with petal pink ink by Versa colour ... I am pleased with the effect ...


Ribbon, flowers, pearl and crochet flowers are all from my stash ...
I know I rarely use a sentiment on my cards ... that's only because I can personalise them when I need to ... I have a whole box of my cards and when birthdays, anniversaries etc., come around .. I can just dip in add a sentiment then ... 
Enjoy your day/evening and I'll be back tomorrow ...
Keep safe
