Bright and Cheerful, Love You More

It's a gray, icy day here in Missouri.  I need some bright colors so today I pulled out the PML cards that go with the I Heart Us paper pack from CTMH. I usually find a few that make great cards. Since they already have images and sentiments, I like to see if they go with the current UnstampaBelles challenge. Here's one that I made for the challenge: Simply Bright and Cheerful with the twist to do something arsty.  I stacked three of the PML cards and added a strip of rainbow stripes from the paper pack, with strands of silver twine. My artsy techniques were to doodle around the edge of the trimmed title panel and to double emboss the dotted panel. First I used a heart embossing folder, then I rubbed the hearts with pigment ink, sprinkled on silver embossing powder, and heat embossed them. Last, I added three butterfly stickers from the set that coordinated with that paper pack.

Rainbows, hearts, love, and butterflies are some of the images that speak cheerful thoughts to me! I hope they do for someone who receives this card.

Thank you for visiting! May you be blessed as you bless others with your creations!
