Happy Valentine's Day

 Good Sunday morning all!  I had this card from a year or so ago and never posted it so I thought I had better post it before we get to Valentine's Day!  I used some decorative papers from my stash (these were from Hobby Lobby in the US).  I cut the Pressed Shirt out of some coordinating striped paper. I added a red pocket to the shirt and a black collar and sun glasses to the pocket.  I cut a thin black strip of card and glued it across the join in the two background papers.  I cut the Happy Valentine's Day sentiment in white and glued it to the bottom of the card.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. What a good idea for a Valentine card when you don't have anything specifically love related in your stash. Really clever.

Hi Sue
A great idea for a valentines card with the pressed shirt, like the papers you’ve used for the background

Love and hugs to everyone
