A brand new Colour Challenge

Hello friends :o)

Hope you are all doing very well.

We have a new Colour Challenge at Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.
This month TRACY has chosen the colours PINK, BLACK, & RED.
I was very lucky to find all I needed for my card right here at home in my 'stash'!
Here is her picture of the colours:

Since I don't have any of the new stamps yet from the 'You're So Special' Collection I have used 'Tilda with Hanging Heart' # 3081 at Diana's store, from the 'Merry Little Christmas Collection 2010'
I think she works OK for Valentine's Day. I didn't have to make a Valentine card but choose to do so....

Here is a closer picture of Tilda:
Oh dear I am having so much trouble with my camera these days :o(

Let's hope the next ones are better, here is the bow with 4 loops:

and the inside:


Hope you enjoy my project this time :o)
Don't for get to pop over to the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog to look at the beautiful work the Design Team has made.

Diana is giving away a $25.00 Gift Certificate to the winner of the Challenge. Lucky girl will get to buy some more Maggies!!!
Love, Candy

Candy, I think this Tilda image is just perfect for a Valentine card--beautifully coloured and nice touch with the glitter. Simply love your gorgeous DP and your heart border. Beautiful details.
I'm always looking forward to what you will come out with as I don't get to see it before, like the rest of the DT's cards...LOL.
