Love, Love Me Do….Challenge #184 at SOS

Looking for my Clear it Out blog post? Scroll down or click HERE.


Shopping our Stash want you to make a Love/Valentine card, Valentines day is only a couple of weeks away and you need to make your Honey a card so I hope you will join us for the fun,  My card fold is almost a total case of a Christmas card I received from snarky sister Lee. I  left the length but made the card so it fit in an A2 envelope. Have a look………

My image is a House Mouse Designs stamp, The flourish has been in my scrap box for at least a year, the pearls and lace are years old too and the buckle is probably 5 years old even the cardstock is  about 13 years old, it’s a 12 X 12 paper pad I bought at our old Wal-mart before they built a super store and moved. Now that is shopping my stash to the limit.

Left over part of the flourish
The inside for the sentiment.


The measurements for the fold are 4 1/4 X 11 7/8 Score at 4 1/2 and 9 7/8. the buckle I used is fairly heavy to hold the flap down., the 2 inch flap is on the right and the left flap goes on top of it.
I would like to put this in the following Challenges:
Hiding in My Craft Room  #186 Any Holiday
Glitter N Sparkle #121 Pearls & Swirls 
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Have a Heart (the buckle has hearts on it)
Eureka Stamps challenge # 125 Hearts (the buckle has hearts on it.)
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you can find some time to make a Love Love me do project.

    Very cute! I have some of those buckles! They're in my stash and I've never used them - couldn't quite figure out what to do with them - so thank you for the inspiration! Now I'll have to try to find them LOL! Gorgeous paper and flourish too!
