This week I am using a fab image from Stitchy Stamps called Power of Love. I had so much fun colouring in this little man. I kept to a simple colour palette of red and black which I feel is great for a man’s card.

The paper is wrapping paper from Paperchase. The red hearts are flocked so it is very touchy feely. The lace and ribbon add a bit more texture and the lattice heart punch provides an added embellishment. The image has been cut out using a Nestabilities die and the sentiment was a magazine freebie from a few years ago.
