Hello Blogger friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today.
It's the day before Valentine's Day, and I wanted to get more of my Valentine cards posted. This one I made for a friend's granddaughter who is taking ice skating lessons. When I saw this cute fox with ice skates, I knew it would be perfect for her.
For my layout I used the sketch #890 from Splitcoaststampers. I thought the mini slimline layout would be perfect to showcase this new die.
The background heart paper is from the Stampin'-Up "have a cuppa" collection. I placed the fox on designer paper from the "in good taste" collection. I thought it had the appearance of an ice pond.
For elements 2, 3 & 5 of the sketch, I used a combo of square and rectangle dies from CottageCutz.
The "be my valentine" phrase is from an older CottageCutz die. It's the "Be My Valentine Puppies" die. I scattered a few hearts and that completes my card for today. So, until next time.......God bless.
