Today is a snowday.....like many others, I'm snowed in! Meaning, it's a GREAT day to stay inside, nice and cozy......and STAMP!! And I did....I'm actually catching up a bit on the Challenges I've missed. Not all of them, mind you, but some. I know I've been side tracked lately.....about a week ago, I completed 125 Save the Date cards for the daughter of a good friend, and this week, I've been working on my son's wedding invitations. He's getting married in May....boy, time is flying by! So, I have been stamping, but haven't been able to share much. Today, I have a few posts for you and lots to share, so please bare with me!
This card is simple...and meets the Bloggers' Challenge for last week. I just recently received some of the Hugs Love Notes* featured in the Occasions Mini....they are just so cute! Those little scallops are already done, all I needed to do was STAMP.....and I added the paper piercing as well. (*Love Notes are located on Page 19 of the Occasions Mini Catalog.....20 to a package for only $3.95!) This was layered on a slightly larger piece of Basic Black. The Real Red background was stamped randomly with the open heart image from I (Heart) Hearts......which if you purchase by February 28, SU will donate $2 from every set sold. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Not sure if you can tell, but the filigree heart image has been cut out and mounted on the dotted heart image. Simple, but I like the way it came out!
Stamps: I (Heart) Hearts, Well Scripted (both sets are in the Occasions Mini)
Inks: White Craft, Real Red, Basic Black
CS: Whisper White, Real Red, Hugs Love Notes
Misc: Wide Basic Black Grosgrain Ribbon, Red Button (retired), Linen Thread, Dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by today....be sure to check back for more, coming soon!

Love your card- great bloggers challenge card. I hope you are enjoying the snow and not getting buried in it!
Nice card...I love the background :-)!
Love your card, Barb! Would love to see what you are doing for Wedding Invites...my son is getting married in June and I need to get working on them!
This is great Barbara! I love the love notes, especially with the extra paper piercing. Great card!
Barbara, so glad you had time to make this lovely card! I love how you stamped the hearts in white on the background and the use of the love hugs notes...why did I not realize they had a scalloped edge! They're great used on the front for the sentiment layer!
Very beautiful card.
Barb - this is SO lovely! I just love red, black and white! TFS!
