Valentine for my Husband

Today I'm posting the valentine I made for my husband.  (He doesn't look at my blog so it's ok for me to post it before I give it to him.)  I think the black music notes and red twine on the heart make a bold and masculine statement.



The kraft card base is CTMH as are the red/blue DP (die cut) and sentiment.  There is a stripe of washi tape behind the die cut heart.  I lightly distressed the heart with brown ink. The music DP is from my stash as are the sequins and string. I actually popped up the sequins instead of gluing them flat. The sequins have Viva Pearl Pen in the center.
.
The sentiment inside is computer generated and says "You make my heart sing."  I think my husband will like it.

I'm entering these challenges:  Simons Says Wednesday Challenge - Get Krafty; Addicted to CAS #31 - Love; Casology- Bold.

I hope you have a great day.  Our day in Georgia is finally looking good.  We lost power 4 times between last night and this morning.  I awoke to see snow falling at 8 am.  By 1:00 pm, the sun was out, and the snow melting.  Tomorrow should be even better :)

  1. Hi Sheila, I'm behind again with visitin', so will be enjoying your earlier post when I leave here. Hope the Big A weather didn't get too awful, and that you didn't lose power. I love this card & so will your DH. So many delightful details, from the music heart, the washi, twine & the background papers. Well done! It's so pretty, yet still a guy type of card. TFS & Hugs
