Digital Tuesday- Hearts

  I think I'm finally getting back into the swing of things and blogging :) 3 posts over the last few days......that's a miracle!! lol
I'm enjoying cardmaking and blogging again, so think it's maybe time to look for another dt position to keep me occupied....... Of course I have Digital Tuesday and By The Cute and Girly, but I have weekdays to myself with the kids all being at school and I miss being on other design teams.
Anyway, I have a dt card to show for Digital Tuesday Challenge, where the theme this week is "Hearts" and our sponsor is Sans Design, 
who is giving away 5 digis of the winners choice and is also offering a runners up prize of 2 digis if we reach over 50 entries (which I'm sure we will :))


The pretty image is by Sans Design and is called Valentines. I coloured her with a mix of Copics and Promarkers as usual. Wish I had added some glitter to the heart now, but never mind.
The papers are from the same pad, but I can't remember which one! I've had them for a long time and don't have the pad cover anymore so no idea who makes them.....sorry.
I kept this card quite simple and just added some flowers. All the roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the paper ones underneath the little roses are made with a selection of Tonic Studio petal pairs punches.
I got 4 of these punches the other day as a subscription gift from a magazine, but I was really dissapointed, because the gift was supposed to be some Promarkers (which I got a few weeks back) and some American Crafts border punches, but they must of ran out of the border punches and sent me these Tonic flower ones instead.
I've seen these petal pairs punches everywhere lately and have never been tempted to buy them. They are a bit small for my liking and although you can mix and match them all to make different flowers, they just don't appeal to me. Maybe they will grow on me, but after using them yesterday, they got put back in their boxes and chucked in my craft box.....probably to stay there and collect dust!
I should maybe sell them and buy some new ones that I will use more often :)


 Thanks so much for stopping by and hope some of you can join in with the challenge at Digital Tuesday.
