Happy V-Day Bloggers!

Happy V-Day everyone...just a little post to spread the love and share my Valentine Day Design Team LO's for My2Angels...

Firstly, one of Me and my DH...

Papers used: Rose Moka Equinoxe Baroque, Carolee's Creations Adorn It XOXO paper, Making Memories Mistletoe Pattern Stripe. Ribbons used: red velvet ric rac, black velvet with silicon swirls, black cotton lace, thin red satin ribbon. Title: Buzz and Bloom Chipboard - Be Mine, Love silver rhinestone bling words. Embellishments: Red scroll felt hearts, SBL cuts chipboard - Black Long Stemmed Bud, Stemmed Star Flowers - red, small metal heart charm.

I distressed and inked the XOXO paper and tucked some black lace in there for a more romantic feel to the page. The Be Mine title was inked with red ink, coated with red kindyglitz, then finished off with a coating of dimensional magic. I adhered it at the bottom with PVA and foam 3-D tape at the top to really make it stand out on the page. I left the black chipboard Long Stemmed Bud untouched, and layered some gorgeous stemmed star flowers along it. The Love silver rhinestone bling word will stick to just about anything - I stuck it over the top of velvet ribbon on this page.

Now this LO is one of my gorgeous little son when he was four, at a kindy concert...

Papers used: black cardstock, Crate Paper Cottage Collection Path, Carolee's Creations Adorn It XOXO paper, Making Memories Mistletoe Pattern Stripe. Ribbons used: wide black ric rac. Title: Buzz and Bloom Chipboard - Be Mine. Embellishments: chipboard butterflies, prima say it with crystals photo corners, mulberry paper flower, heart from Buzz and Bloom Chipboard - Be Mine pack.

The title is from the Buzz and Bloom Be Mine pack - I inked the pieces then coated them with Tim Holtz crackle accents. The rhinestone photo corners are ready made, but you can make your own using a flourish stamp and versamark or hand drawing your own design, making the dots lightly with pencil, then adhere rhinestones. The butterflies are chipboard that have been inked with red ink, embossed with the cuttlebug script embossing folder, then inked again with black ink. The grey mulberry flower was stamped with a flourish stamp and black ink.

I hope you all had a lovely V-day, whatever you did. Off to have V-Day chinese for tea - and Gung hee fatt choi to all my chinese friends for the year of the Tiger. :-)
