I have another Valentine's card for you. The Retro Rubber Challenge wants us to CASE one of our Valentine's card from a previous year using stamps older than one year.
I made this card in 2010. White card (hard to see), layer of red, holographic gift wrap, background stamped in black, punched hearts, last heart has red glitter on it.
This is my new version:
Stamps: Stamp Camp (background), Inkadinkado (sentiment)
Dies: WPlus9 (hearts), Simon Says Stamp (banner)
Distress Inks: Picked Raspberry, Barn Door
I silver embossed the background, mounted it on a pink card, cut out hearts from distress inked watercolor paper, added a banner. This shade of pink makes me very happy at the moment!
Challenges:
Retro Rubber Challenge #7 - Flashback Valentine
ETA: This was a "Fabulous Five"!
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - All Things Bright & Beautiful
The pink is bright and the card hopefully beautiful!
Get crafty and play along!
Hugs,
Susanne

Hi Suzanne! I have to say. I think the old valentine is cute but your remake is spectacular! That silver embossing and those watercolored hearts - sweet perfection!
And I would agree, that pink is wonderful! Thanks for playing along with Retro Rubber!!

Beautiful - thanks for playing with us at Retro Rubber. Your card rocks, it's fun to go back and see what we created before isn't it!!
Your makeover of your first card - which I consider quite eye-catching - is gorgeous! Lovely embossing and the pink/grey combination is just wonderfully yummy! Congrats on the Fabulous Five!!
