Valentine Defined

I had fun yesterday playing with my new SU goodies, Valentine Defined and the patterned paper that goes with it. Unfortunately, the DP uses one of my most UN-favorite SU colors--Basic Gray--I liked Going Gray SO much better. But I tried to keep an open mind. On this first card I used an old Mojo Monday sketch that went really well with this image and sentiment. I stamped the flowers in Real Red on Whisper White and glittered each tiny heart. The "o" in "Love" is a rhinestone brad. I used my SU embossing folder on the Basic Gray strip and glittered some Real Red Brads. It's pretty, but I still don't like Basic Gray.

On this card I wanted to use the split negative technique on the flamingoes. It turned out pretty cute. I also used Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware. Card Base is Basic Gray again, not black; it looks black in the pic.

On this last card I used Brushed Silver instead of Basic Gray, and I like it better. The birds are die cut using SU's movers and shapers Sizzix dies. Heart is Embosslit (pink) and SU punch (red DP). Rhinestones finish off the corners. This might make a nice wedding card in different colors. There is no stamping on this card.

Thanks for dropping by today! Happy stamping!
