This week's Our Daily Bread Design Challenge is to use Valentine's Day colors and items as your inspiration - reds, pinks, hearts, etc. This card looks so much better IRL - you can actually read the sentiment which I did in different shades of gold, silver, and copper. It is the from the Friends image offered by ODBD. Here is the link if you want to play in this challenge:
I used the Deconstructed Sketch #36 for the layout - that Jen comes up with some awesome sketches! Here is the link if you want to see this awesome sketch:
I let my paper take over when I did this one! So I guess it also qualifies for this week's Twisted Sister Challenge which is about paper - interpreted how ever you like. Paper seems to take over most my cards, but it especially did on this one. Use the keywords TSC0127 if you want to play in this one.
PT - zero - I handcut my hearts as you could probably tell!

I don't know how to mix dp's like this Nancy. Yours are so fantastic and, like you said, the dp practically makes the card. Your cut out hearts don't look cut out, so I think that counts as 2 punches in my book. Lovin' the sentiment too. I've gotta send you that photo of Audzi and I drinking Starbuck's coffee even if it is blurry! Hugs sis!

Sweet Nancy, this is a super "friends" card - you sure know how to pick very complimentary papers to go together!! When you linked those hearts together, and added that quote, you emphasized just what Friendship is all about! Love all the distressing and yummy glitter. This card sparkles - just like you, my Sister! Big Hugs to you!! LYMI! - you KNOW it!

This is awesome Nancy. I just love the little sprig of tinsel that illuminates this card. One of my friends sent me that song a long time ago-this brings back memories. You card is just stunning and a perfect creation to send to a treasured friend!
