Wild About Love - class card #2



I have this thing about not using the Close to my Heart (CTMH) Stamp of the month (SOTM) before the month is it released. HOWEVER, this is the February SOTM and I couldn't resist using it for a Valentine card for my club. This is the firswt stamp set used from the NEW Spring/Summer CTMH catalog which goes live on February 1st. My clubs only meet the week of Valentines day and if we had snow that week, they wouldn't get a chance to make this cute card. So, this is card #2 of my January card class.

I love using pink and gray together and don't do it often enough. What I really like about this set and this card, is that it doesn't have to be for Valentines day. It could be for an Anniversary or just for any time you really want to let someone special in your life know how much they mean to you.
This card may just be the Valentine for my 4 year old grandson Jeffrey since he sometimes can be a Wild Thing! All Boy!!!

The colors of my cardstock are, Slate, Whisper, and Blush. Inks used are Blush and Slate. 
The background was embossed with a Spellbinders heart embossing folder. Gray bakers twine was tied around the card and slate washi tape was used across the bottom.

Very cute card. Great idea to use it this month instead of waiting, in case of bad weather. I have been on the fence about this myself so I ordered it at full price on the 1st. :)
