Hello there! It's time for this week's edition of the Color Throwdown! Kerri is our super-talented hostess this week and she's chosen a perfect Valentine's Day color combo!
~

I used my Pretty and Pampered stamp set from Our Craft Lounge to create a Valentine card for our oldest granddaughter who's 13.

The heart is felt and hand stitched around the edge with some cotton twine. The robe was stamped on white cardstock, cut out and then covered with Sparkly Fluff (Sugar). It's so sparkly in person! The black panel was embossed using the Quatrefoil cover plate from PTI, and the bling is from Want To Scrap.

Using the felt heart qualifies this card for the OCL blog challenge this week: OCL102 to use felt or fabric hearts.

I hope you'll play along in both challenges! I can't wait to see your creations!
How about a little (no, a lot!) of inspiration from my Color Throwdown sisters? Also, please help us welcome our new Guest Designer for the month of February, Jenny Peterson! Here you go:

Such a cute card...I love how the robe is hanging from the heart, and the hand stitching adds so much. Curious about your announcement on Friday? On a new design team?
