Freshly Made...with Chipboard


Now Christmas has passed it seems Valentines day is the next best celebration!  This card combines a very versatile sketch from Freshly Made with CAS-ual Fridays Chipboard Challenge (I used Cosmo Cricket Blackboard flower frame and chipboard silver alpha) and this sophisticated colour combo from the Colour Throwdown Challenge.  I have cut the heart shape to reveal the red behind it, and added an extra hint of red with Kaisercraft pearls in the centre of the flowers.




Hope you are enjoying a relaxing weekend too :)
