Well the LOTV Design team have something fun for you today! We are celebrating Valentine's Day with a mini hop! Yep, several of the design team are showing you a card or project today using the adorable "Times To Treasure" stamp! We will have some candy for 2 lucky winners too! All you have to do is post a comment on each of the DT listed below and two of our DT will draw from their comments and 2 people will win a stamp from Lili of the Valley! Easy! Here is my card for the hop:
Dena (me)
Not a really Valentiney card now is it? haha! Sorry, I was having some "issues". At first I started out making a napkin fold card, then after it was all folded, I hated it! Yuk!!! So I couldn't let the papers go to waster so I just cut it up and plopped it on a brown piece of cardstock and I like it so much better!
Colored with distress inks! The papers are Pion Designs (love them!)
My flowers and lace are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I think the pink Hellebores with the coffee brown roses are just gorgeous together!!!
I sure hope you have fun on the hop. I know you will be inspired!
Thank you for visiting!
Hugs, Dena
