Two Hearts ...

Hello ...
How are you? Good I hope and looking forward to the new challenge today at


Where our hostess is the lovely Charlene and the challenge she has set us is to make a card or project that includes the word
LOVE 


It may be Valentine's day on Friday but your project doesn't have to be Valentine's related
I needed an anniversary card for some friends of mine and I kept it very simple ... inspired by Charlene's photo


My sweet friend Stella sent me some lovely double sided papers and I just had to use them for this


The embossing folder I used is the Swiss Dots folder ... an all time favourite but I embossed both sides of the card - slightly offsetting one - to get a different look


The sentiment is computer generated - a bit of lace and a glittery rose just completes my simple card

Our Guest Designer this week - Winner of challenge 194 - is Lucille ... a regular at City Crafter and we are thrilled to have her with us this week ... Please hop over to her blog and say 'Hi" I'm sure you will love her work

If you would like a chance at Guest Designing with us all you have to do is link up with us and be sure to follow the rules ...

My fellow DT at CCCB have some beautiful creations to inspire you ... do take a look

Thanks so much for your visit and for leaving me such encouraging comments ... I really do appreciate it ...

Till soon ... be safe

Your take on the challenges is always lovely and so inspiring. Your friends will love it. The contrast you created with red on white is gorgeous.And so is that flower.I am glad you could use some of the papers.
