Hearts of Elegance

I know Christmas isn't even here yet, but I wanted to be sure and share the Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Paper before it goes on backorder.

This is just one of the beautiful patterns of gold-speckled paper in the package.  I chose the Real Red version for my Valentine's Day card, but there is also a Flirty Flamingo and a Melon Mambo version as well.  The front of the card is pretty plain in my version, but if you wanted to step it up a bit, you could add another layer of red that had been embossed with your favorite embossing folder.  You could also add some of the Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins.  I may have to try those two things with another of the colors of paper.

It is certainly a mess out there if you had anywhere you needed to be today but the trees are beautiful with the ice sticking to and hanging from the branches of the trees.

I tried to take a photo, but it doesn't show up as well as I would like.  If I were more adventurous, I would venture out to my driveway and try again, but since I don't want to risk falling, I will be happy with this one.  I was supposed to go to Susie's today to stamp but I think we are going to postpone that until the weather is better!!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
