Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog this 1st day of February.
It's a bright and sunny day here in Pittsburgh and still pretty cold. But we are already into our 2nd month of winter and the days are getting longer. Last night it was fairly light at 5:50. The cold I can deal with, but I just love it when the days start to get longer.
I just finished up some light house cleaning and thought I would get a Blog post in before I move onto straightening out my craft room. You know that's always an ongoing job.
Now onto my card for today. This one I created using the colors from the Splitcoaststampers color challenge #1035. We were to use azure afternoon, daffodil delight and granny apple green for the color trio. Optional was to make it a Valentine.

For my card I did a bit of upcycling with a thank you card I received. I loved the foiling on the card and it had the granny apple green color. So, I gave it new life as a Valentine card. I cut the card background and used it as designer paper.
The hearts were cut in the challenge colors and added to the tree branches. The heart die cuts are part of the Candy Hearts die from Lawn Fawn.
I used the Love phrase die from CottageCutz and placed it over the thank word that was on the card.
Stamped the rest of my sentiment and my card is complete.
These are different colors for a Valentine card, but I like using non-traditional colors for Valentine's Day.
