Valentine for a Rocket Scientist
February 15th, 2008
Just a quick post to share the Valentine I made for Curt.
As soon as I saw Pun Fun I knew I wanted to make a card for Curt with this cute rocket image. Last week’s SCS color challenge (Ballet Blue, Real red, Apricot) was just what I needed to get this card started. I used the jumbo wheel Whimsy at a diaganol across the blue panel. The rocket was stamped on shimmer white and colored with re-inker and an aquapainter and a zig painty pen. The *doodling* around the edge is actually my hand written sentiment “I love you to the moon and back ~ to infinity and beyond ~ forever and ever”. The little hearts are a dollar punch from Target and I covered them with a red Sakura sparkle gel pen. Ribbon goes through a jumbo eyelet.
I’m just about to celebrate my One Year Blogiversary so be on the lookout for some blog candy! Happy Valentine’s Day!

What a wonderful valentine! I especially love the handwritten sentiment around the outside. I bet this was a real hit.

I was on the fence about this set, the rocket was already my favorite… I think you just sealed the deal with this card. I LOVE IT!
