For the first time ever, I've gotten into a valentine groove. I struggle with valentines and don't usually send many, but I've embraced them this year. This card sparkles beautifully IRL. Today's sketch was so perfect for this Bugaboo digi that was on my to do list. I had fun coloring it up with markers and then Wink of Stella brushes (gold on the snitch and stars and silver background). Because the image sparkled nicely, I decided to grab this fabulous gold ribbon for the border. You can't see how much color reflects off this ribbon in the picture. It's a rainbow of awesomeness. Sadly, I've used the last of it here. I'm kind of proud of myself for using something up today instead of hoarding it forever. This is the same DP that I used on yesterday's Tea Party card and it matched so nicely to the colors I used in the image. It also has a bit of shimmer to it.

This is Fabulous, Jen! I have a couple of friends who would like it even more than I do. They are into HP very deep! Your coloring is great as usual and the DP and ribbon really frame it up beautifully!

Only you could add a glittery ribbon to a "boy" card and make it look right. This card is great. And I love that dp you have been using lately. Fun, fun card for someone's Valentine's Day.
