With Love

Hello!!  I'm so happy that Blogger is back, aren't you?! :)  I have another pretty quick card to share with you today.  Have you seen the most recent challenge over the Moxie Fab World?  Following-up on the Moxie Fab column in the May/June issue of Paper Crafts Magazine, Cath has challenged us all to use chevrons - you know, a zig zag stripe!   Well, I just happen to have the perfect stamp so I couldn't resist!

Beyond Borders from Mint Motif at i {heart} papers has a great chevron stamp included and I love it because, like all the stamps in that set, it is long enough to stamp the entire front of a card.  I stamped the chevron using Fresh Snow ink and then used a little heart from Sweet Hearts.  I bet you have a lot of little stamps that would look great stamped in those "valleys" of a chevron! :)

The card measures 5" x 3.5".  The red circle, die cut with Circle Nestabilities, was stamped using one of the images in Very Square and I wanted to have a little doily behind it but I only have a bigger size doily die.  However, I discovered that I could cut it with a big scalloped Nestie and it still shows some of the pretty doily detail!  The sentiment is from Very Square Sentiments.

Pop over and give the challenge a try, chevrons are fun and Fab!! :)
