So with that in mind here's my DT card for this week's challenge over at Totally Gorjuss,.The theme this week is LOVEY DOVEY (obviously). The is actually my hubbie's Valentine's card - he loved it.
The cream card base is an 8 x 8. The red background card was distressed with scissors and distressing ink, this is not my normal style but I thought I'd give it a go. I cut a piece of Kraft paper into a large banner and partially rolled the end (this was originally the liner paper rolled inside my Xmas paper - I keep everything lol). I threaded some Bakers Twine down the centre and tied it in a knot with a die cut heart button to secure it. I tore and distressed the edges and added some distressing inks to age it. The cute cupid was printed out 4 times, coloured with Copics, cut out and layered up. I die cut the letters and hearts which were attached to the card base along with some Candi. My cute cupid was such a dream to colour in, but a nightmare to cut out....especially his arms and legs. But it was definitely worth it.
