My heart feels happy

Olo!

Yesterday turned out to be a long day... but a good day. Still, it didn't leave me any time to get into the crafty room and create. Luckily for me, I had a couple of cards published in the very first edition of Designed to Color and after 30 days I'm allowed to share them here. So that is exactly what I've got for ya today. :)

This card features the adorable Wild Sprout Ruby (who will always be a fave of mine) and I paired her up with some KI Memories Hot Date papers. Yea, this was kinda-sorta a Valentine card but I don't think that makes it too late to blog it now. The color palette is pretty non-traditional for Valentines anyway. ;)
So of course all the colors on Ruby were pulled from the colors in the papers which allowed for quite a mix. And the sentiment and the little envelope in her hand were also cut from different parts of the papers. After that, there really didn't seem to be a whole lot that needed to be added in order to finish off the card... just a metal rim tag to highlight the sentiment and a little staple to hold it in place. It's a pretty quick and easy layout design and I think that Ruby looks right at home here... and pretty darn thrilled to have received that love letter from her secret admirer! LOL

Alrighty, I'm off to go play a bit. Have a great one!
