This is my card for CC933, Diane is our hostess and she chose coastal cabana, poppy parade and crumb cake for her color trio. Dessert Option this week is your fave embellishment. I wanted to use enamel dots then forgot to put them on my card (LOL)!!!
I went with a Valentine design for my card. I had this idea for the truck carrying lots of hearts.
The truck die is one from Christmas. I just eliminated Santa and his treats and added hearts. I cut the truck in poppy parade and added the hubcaps in crumb cake. Stamped the special delivery phrase in black ink.
Used acetate for the windshield and headlight but it didn't show up very well in the photo. In retrospect I maybe should have shaded it with gray ink?
I cut the Valentine phrase in poppy parade and stamped the love word in black ink.
Thats my sample for this week. Hope you can play along with us. We have some fun colors for your card creations.

Oh, I love that one heart has jumped out of the truck and landed on the edge of the "love" word! Very clever to get a new use out of Christmas dies, and what a sweet Valentine's card this is!

This is the kind of Valentine that could work for so many people. I love your choice of the Valentine die with this truck. The font makes me think of that used on vintage cards.

Super cute! Love how you used the challenge colors. The heart-filled truck is adorable. I like the little heart at the end of the word. A wonderful special delivery for someone. Great card.

So cute Mary! I love truck cards and I'm not sure why, but they always look fabulous carrying the load of the day! Your red truck with hearts is just perfect for Valentine's!
