Valentine's Day Card
As we step into the month of February and the celebration of love, I crafted a beautiful Valentine's Day card using the Romance and Roses Line from Reneabouquets with Midnight Spell by Ciao Bella. Instead of the typical red and white color scheme typical of Valentines Day, I used light blue, pink and a touch of gold.
To create the foundation, I layered two background papers onto a 6x6 card with a raised frame to add depth and dimension to the overall design. To ensure harmony with the three colors, I applied a touch of white chalk paint to the frame, subtly softening its brightness and allowing it to blend with the surrounding papers.
In the top left corner, I arranged a cluster featuring the Romance and Roses Blue Cherub, surrounded by delicate mulberry vintage pink roses and a touch of lace for added texture. Beneath the cherub, I strategically cut and positioned some Lovely Drop Lace and a small dove providing a delicate base.
The lower corner of the card hosts another cluster anchoring the design. Here, I used a pink lace heart cut from the Venetian Embroidered Lace. On top of this, I layered a Romance and Roses Tuck-in, completing the ensemble with the word "Love" that I heat embossed with white embossing powder.
A little secret of mine... I recommend using Reneabouquets Beautiful Beads in place of pop dots to create elevation. This not only achieves the desired height but also renders a stunning side profile that enhances the overall aesthetic.
To complete my creation, I added three Hearts of Glass, along with white and pale pink microbeads as well as Rose Gold Iridescent Pearls and Clear Glass Beads in the floral elements providing a touch of shimmer. A scattering of art stones further enriched the texture, culminating in a card that radiates beauty and romance in every detail.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Until next time: "Let your art take you where you want to go."
