I haven't made a lot of Valentine's cards outside of the 50 or so I make each year for the kids classmates. I Still need to figure those out for the year and time is running out. I wanted to use this adorable Sassy Cheryl Digital image called "A Letter Sent With Love" so a Valentine's card seemed the most appropriate. Another thing I haven't made a lot of is round card....actually now that I think about it, I have never made one. I bought these round scalloped cards from a Michael's $1.50 bin a year (or more ago) and this is my first time using them.
To go along with my Sassy Cheryl image of Sally (A Letter Sent With Love) I added the mailbox image and sentiment from a My Favorite Things set called "Happy Mail". The paper I used is from a My Minds Eye 6x6 paper pad called "Love Me".
The hearts are cut from my Cricut using the Accent Essentials cartridge. I backed them with a blue paper from my scrap stash, then covered them with glossy accents.
The layout for my card was inspired by an older Mojo Monday sketch from 2010 # 141.
The image of Sally is coloured with Copic markers. For a bit of texture, I added some glitter to the envelope and the heart on the mailbox. I added a larger heart to the envelope and added glossy accents.
