Thought of the Week

Sweet Heidi

Happy Thursday to everyone.  I hope everyone's week is going well. 
I don't make a lot of Valentine's Day cards.  I admit that I'm not that mom anymore who makes all of the VD cards for this kids' classmates.  It's just too easy and simple to buy the cards, especially now that the cards have the candy attached to them, from Wally World and be done with it.  I do make a couple for my own kids, but that's about it!

Here is one of those rare VD cards for one of my girls.  This sweet image is from Wee Stamps and is called Heidi.  The papers are from MME, the die cuts are from Memory Box and MFT and the sentiment is from Technique Tuesday.  I believe the flowers are from WOC and Prima.

Heidi got the usual doll up of copics.  The polka dots were done with Ranger liquid pearls in pink and the balls on her boots received some stickles in Stardust.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope y'all have a great rest of the week.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
Fab 'n Funky:  Valentines/Hearts
Fresh Brewed:  Hearts and Dots
Stampotique Designers:  Red, Pink, White
Bearly Mine:  Anything Goes
Sweet Stop:  Think Pink
Created with Love:  Valentine's Day
Cutie Pie:  Valentine's Day
