Be Mine

Hello sweet friends!  I hope you're having a fabulous week.  I am actually caught up on my DT work and had some time to make a Valentine card for my sweet hubby.  I can't believe I have it done in January ... I'm usually finishing his card at the very last minute lol!

 
I have had this sweet Saturated Canary - Little Lady Bug stamp for a while and wanted to get her inky so I decided to make her into a Valentine card.  I think it works, don't you?  I picked my stamp up at The Paper Cottage but if you're not local you can find this stamp over at Little Darlings Rubber Stamps.  She's colored with copics and colored pencils and then I added lots of Glamour Dust to her antennae and wings.  I diecut my flowers with the Layered Rose die from My Favorite Things and then added a little pearl to each one.  I usually don't use glitter, flowers, and pearls on cards for DH but hey - it's a Valentine!  Plus, she's so cute she needs lots of girly embellishments.
 
Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.
 
Hugs, Anita
