Throwing my Hat in

This is my second post for today please scroll down for my Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge Card 102

I was looking at the MFT guest designer challenge for February and didn't think I was going to play along - then I remembered I had received as a birthday present MFT's  Clearly Sentimental stamps About Love so I thought I might make a card.

Yes this is so not a card!  I remembered I had some frames so I decided to alter one of them.  The contest requires a Valentines theme (love sentiment); 2 card stocks not including the base; I have groovy guava, riding hood red, and sage shadow (a colour I never use!!); 1 design paper - I used  2 from My Minds Eye be loved from last year.  The final requirement was 3 embellishments.  I did a pool with some friends on whether sewing was an embellishment; some said yes some no so I have the flowers made with MFT's rolled flower die-namic; a ghost heart, ghost leaves, and on the sentiment (cut with die-namics framed greetings die) I have two tiny heart rhinestones.

When I finished the project I added one of my favourite pictures of my parents (this is suppose to be a gift for them HOWEVER it looks fabulous on a table in my stamp room!!)  The picture was taken when they were dating over 53 years ago!!  This picture of them makes me smile; how lucky am I that they are still together; they are quite the example to us kids!!

Thanks for stopping by - have a fantastic day!!
