Topiarybella Valentine...

Hey there...Happy Monday to you all!!! :) Wow...my weekend was crazy and I am super sore from going to Boot Camp on Saturday. I don't think...well I know that I have never worked out that hard before. After the torture was all done, I came home, took a shower and was pretty useless after that...LOL!!! So I didn't get to work on any cards till yesterday and this was one of them. I just recently got my Bittersweet papers from Basic Grey and decided to pair it Topiarybella that I just ordered. This card took me way too long to complete. My sewing machine was giving me fits yesterday, but once I got it fixed I was able to stitch on my card and so love the outcome!

I stamped Topiarybella with Memento Tuxedo Black twice, once onto White Daisy CS and again onto my Bittersweet dp and then colored her with my CTMH markers and Copics. I also added some shimmer with my Clear Copic Spica Glitter Pen to her little heart bag, headband and the hearts on the tree...it looks so sparkly IRL. I cut her out using my Oval Nesties and pop-dotted her onto my card base. I then added a few Primas with buttons and called it done! :D I'm not sure what sentiment I will use for this card so I just decided to leave it off for now. Well that's it's for me today, hope everyone has a Fabulous Monday! ~ Jenn

Your card is beautiful. Love the paper. Thought about you last night when I was watching Desperate Housewifes. Gabriella went to Boot Camp with Edie and it was H***. Hope yours wasn't like that. LOL.
