VALENTINES CARD FOR MY SON

Here's an 8 inch square card made with a backing card with red hearts and gold swirls.  I then added Edge Borders in Black and Gold made from the TONIC PUNCH on both edges of the card.  I then used  GLOSSY ACCENTS over the little red hearts on the backing card and left it to dry for an hour.

For the next step i had to make the middle panel from Red Glitter Dot Card matted onto Black Card just to give it an edge.  I then hand drew a heart onto Black Card and then cut it out.  I hole punched the top middle of the heart to thread some string threw and hung it from the main red satin bow, then covered the hole punch hole with a big red Gem.

I finished the card off with a sentiment from BRITANNIA DIES, A Gold Corner embellishment by CREATIVE EXPRESSIONS, which i put at the bottom of the heart, COSMIC SHIMMER BLACK GLUE dotted around the rest of the heart and the edge of the card, then finally a few strings of white pearls also from CREATIVE EXPRESSIONS.
