All you need is love...

Hello friends!

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, it is time to feel the love with this week's Scenic Saturday post over on the Bellariffic blog. Personally, I think one of the best things about Valentine's Day is the chocolate, so I inked up the pretty Oddball with a Box of Chocolates from the latest release.

I started by stamping Oddball with a Box of Chocolates a bit left of center onto the card front. This left me with enough room to add the Window behind her, creating an opportunity for added interest within the scene. Inside her room I kept everything very soft and pale pink so that her red hair and rose print dress would stand out against it. Outside the window, the yard still has some melting snow and the trees that I sketched in haven't yet started to sprout leaves, representing the cold days that I personally experience this time of the year. So whether this Oddball is treating herself or enjoying a sweet surprise from a special someone, what better way to while away a chilly February afternoon than with a box of chocolates? The sentiment from the Chocolate Sentiment set perfectly drives that point home. So I hope this card inspires you to treat yourself with some crafty time and chocolate.  ;)

Stay crafty my friends!
