Charisma Cardz Challenge #3

This week over on Charisma Cardz is a challenge set by Paula and the theme is 'LOVE'.

This is the other Valiversary card I needed to do for a couple who celebrate their wedding anniversary on Valentine's Day. I used the 'Hearts' Fiskars shape cutter to cut out the hearts. I've done a kind of loose weave effect with checked ribbon on the black heart, then layered two smaller hearts and a jewelled black heart in the centre. Added some black and red card panels to the side with a button on each, which were threaded with ribbon or cord. The sentiment was done on the PC and I doodled the cross stitching around the edge. To finish I added some circle and heart gems to the top corner edge.

I'm not feeling too well today, swollen glands, sore throat and the dreaded sniffles, Steve's the same but he also has terrible sinus pain, which is a common problem for him. So both feeling a bit sorry for ourselves today...lol. And to top it all off the heating has gone on the blink, so Steve's mucking about with that, he always likes to have a go at fixing things before he calls the experts..lol.

Hope everyone is having a nice day.
