Warm & Toasty

I made a sweet little lovey dovey card today using Sheepish from The Cat's Pajamas and the heart trio CutUps.

Pin It

Alma is having a fun little Valentine blog hop and I wanted to join in. Here's the post with all the details, in case you're interested. I used the latest sketch from Splitcoast, SC371, but I flipped it to use the mirror image.

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black and coloured it with copic markers, then I cut it out. I paper pieced the scarf with one of the patterns from the My Mind's Eye Love Me paper pad and I wanted to make sure the stripes were going in the right direction so I pieced one end of the scarf a second time. I cut out the hearts from patterned paper first, then I cut them again from pink felt and stitched them together.

Thanks for stopping by!
