Special Delivery Hearts


(Please scroll down for my Papercraft Star project for this week's challenge)

     Today starts a new challenge at Inky Impressions and the theme is "I ♥ You" so we want to see some hearts used some way on your projects.
     For my card I've used Angelica's Sled from the Inky Impressions Rubberstamps Store.  I colored her with Copics and even tried a new technique.  You see the spots on her scarf?  I did that with my Colorless Blender and I love the way it looks.  I'm probably the last person on earth to try this LOL so excuse my slowness.  :-)
     That cute little heart charm hanging from the twine can be found in the Inky Store too.  I added some punched hearts with pearls and took the little hearts left over from the border punch, covered them in Stickles and added them on Angelica's sled.
     I'm sure that lots of you are making Valentines right now so you're sure to have some hearts in there somewhere.  Pop over to the Inky Challenge Blog and play along.
     I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Anything Goes Challenge--to the one I love
Craft Room Challenge--Valentines
Corrosive Challenge--I {HEART} You
Penny Black--love and hearts
Stampin' Sisters in Christ--make a heart stand out on your project

How fabulous, Tracy! What a sweet card! LOVE your coloring, and the trick with the scarf is so cool. Don't worry..........I haven't tried anything like that, so you are definitely not the last person to do so. ;) Fabulous layering. Love the border punch. And how clever to use the leftover bits and pile them on the sled!
