Another Valentine Challenge?

Hi again - we might as well make the most of it - after all it's only once a year! I'll go back to a sketch challenge next week.

So for now....

.... this week's challenge is to make a Card using pink (or red) in it somewhere (or everywhere) but definately no hearts at all this time! Can't wait to see which SU stamps you choose to use.

Here's my no-heart Valentine:


I stamped the large background SU French Flair stamp on red card with Versamark ink.
Added an small All My Love greeting (SU) in black to the top left of the red card, then wrapped black grosgrain ribbon around. The swallow from the SU Carte Postale set was stamped onto white card using black ink.
I love the way these 2 stamp sets work together.

Valentines Day Challenge #1

Welcome again!

I went to the SU Open Night in Bristol tonight with Helen from our church crafters club - we had a fab time (more on my blog tomorrow!)

Well, this week's challenge is unusually not a layout (I do plan to mainly do sketch layouts.)

Seeing as we are all probably focusing on Valentines Day which is just around the corner, I thought we could have a challenge for Valentines Cards.

Your mission - should you choose to accept it - it to make a card that contains at least one heart (it doesn't have to be stamped) but should not contain any red or pink, anywhere on the card! Naturally, it needs to contain at least one SU Stamp from the current Stampin' Up! UK catalogue.

I am really looking forward to these! As it's been a late night out, I will have to post mine tomorrow for you!
