A Simple Valentine

The Forever Friends Challenge this week is:

Valentines

This challenge was on my list of ones that I wanted to achieve for the week. I always make a list of the ones I want to do, bearing in mind what else I need to do for the week and I try my best to complete the list.

This card started with good intentions - I had coloured the bear early in the week and started on the red glitter glue knowing that it would need a few coats. And then it all stopped. And I managed to complete it last night not really knowing what background to use. So, its a bit of a rushed card as I am shattered (both boys have now had / have the sickness bug so lack of sleep has not helped).


And the angle of the card is wonky.
  • Backing paper: Little Pillow - a download I found ages ago
  • Image: Forever Friends coloured with watercolour pencils and red glitter glue
  • Ribbon: From my stash

I've got 2 days off next week as its half term so hopefully I can catch up on some bits and bobs including completing 40 Evening Wedding Invitations!
