Penny Black - For You

Hi everyone.  Happy Valentine's Day!!  Hope you are all having a wonderful and relaxing day.  

Penny Black has a new release "Daydream" with went live yesterday.  This is the first image I'm playing with (...For You).  These mice are so adorable carrying the beautiful rose.  Smiled the whole time I was making this card! :)  I wanted to have the mice standing on something fun, so added a chain of hearts (heart image from Huggable) for them to run across.   Both cards are watercoloured with a mix of Distress Inks and Dye Inks.

Close-up ...
You can see the shimmer of clear Wink of Stella on the hearts to add a little sparkle. :)

Next card is super CAS.  I just used the rose from the same image above ...
This rose is so gorgeous, I wanted to show it all by itself.  I then fussy-cut and popped up on my card front that has a wonderful sentiment from one of the other new sets - Smiles.

I'm sending this card over to The Flower Challenge #53.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit!!

  6. I wish I could attach an audio file right now, Lolly, because Hammy is squealing with joy over these cute little mice tip-toeing over the schparkly hearts to bring their special loved one a beautiful rose! It is just too cute and romantic for words! And your twofer of the single perfectly painted rose is completely CASlicious and elegant. I love a design that can be used for many occasions. Thank you for showcasing these new stamps for us! Love, Dolly

  14. I'm smiling all over looking at this! You know how I adore cuteness, and you've given this first card an extra dose with the string of hearts and your pretty watercoloring. Speaking of pretty, it's clever of you to see the rose on its own in all its glory. That's one gorgeous card, Loll!
