This is my Valentine card for my wonderful friend, Shelley. It is a triple challenge- TLC 155, Ink, Spray & Smash, CC 153, Tempting Turquoise, Kraft, Green Galore, and SC 163.
I used the turquoise and green reinkers on glossy CS to create my backgrounds. The Ancient Heart stamp was done in Basic Brown ink and covered with 5 layers of Versamark and UTEE for a cracked glass effect. There are 3 tiny charms- a heart, a lock, and a key, tied to silver thread around the heart. I died the strip of Twill Tape in the same reinkers, and embellished with green crystal brads.
The lovely lady panel is embellished with Swarovski crystals in the corners, which I think gives it a more elegant look than the usual brads.
I love the sentiment which reads, *Friendship is a journey of time, love and memories.*
Thanks for looking, and Happy Valentines' Day to Everyone!
Maddy

So very beautiful and artistic as always, Maddy! I love it! I'm way behind on my gallery and internet surfing and e-mails with the new puppy here. It's coming along pretty good, but she's a pistol! Linda
