Valentine for a Guy

Hurray--1 Valentine ready for next year!  I used my Impression Obsession stamps "Valentine Wishes" & "Heart Flourish" to enter the Impression Obsession It Must be Love challenge. The sentiment is stamped in Versamark & clear embossed--love the tone on tone look it gives on kraft cardstock. Then I stamped the flourish in opposite corners using Brilliance Rocket Red & colored the dots with my white gel pen.  

I added a bit of piercing in the other corners & used a wet paintbrush to add splotches of Brilliance Pearlescent Chocolate.  The panel is mounted to the white card with foam tape. This is also my second entry for the Celebrations challenge at The Kraft Journal. Thank you so much for stopping by.

    Pretty card Greta, I like the simplicity of your design! The heart flourishes stamped in red on kraft are wonderful. I like the little flecks of white you added!

    Great design of this masculine card, Greta! This is my go-to color for men. I find that Kraft with red is always a great color combo for masculine cards. LOVE it! Oh, and I finally signed in to my google connect and now I am your newest follower! Yay! Have a happy Wednesday!!!

    Greta, I hear through the blogvine that it was your birthday last week?! I didn't know you crafty little minx! Happy birthday, however belatedly. If you wanted to send me your address, I'd be more than happy to treat your birthday properly. :D P.S. I love this dreamy creation. It's simple, elegant, and lovely.

    This has awesome masculine coloring, GG, but it is quite lovely enough for a woman, too! A gender-neutral card is so great for the stash! Hugs, Darnell

    Handsome and striking, Greta...actually, let's add classy and elegant to the mix, too *grin* The kraft with red...oh my! And oh my goodness, in the hectic-ness of traveling here and there, and just generalized 'scatteredness', I totally forgot to wish you Happy Birthday..so I'm doing so now; HAPPY BIRTHDAY, dear friend! Something just 'might' be fluttering your way...tee hee....
    Hugs galore,
