More Valentines!

I made another Valentine with  Cheri Wengers digital Love Notes set.  I just love tracing her hearts with Stickles!  As you can see I went overboard with these, red inside and gold outside.  I was trying to keep this masculine for my Son.  Not sure if you can tell but I used a wide red satin ribbon then layered the red and gold braid on top of that.  I used 5mm Ruby Rim Stones from Judy at Pizzazz Aplenty and trimmed the white card stock with my Gold Leafing Pen.  Did I tell you I am hooked on envelope liners?  I traced the envelope lip, cut it out and then used a punch on this one.  Here is a tip from my friend Emily at Sweetly Scrapped.  There is a new photo editing website called iPiccy.  iPiccy makes your photo awesome with many easy to use photo tools. Edit pictures, apply beautiful photo effects, add text and even paint! Enjoy free photo editing online and show your creativity with iPiccy editor!  For those of you who used Picnic, it will be closing in April, they will give refunds to all of their Premium members.  I used iPiccy today, it is awesome!  Thats it, thanks for looking, and most of all thanks for stopping by and leaving me all the wonderful encouragement, I really can't tell you how much I appreciate it.  ~Diane
I am hooking up to Carol's link party over at The Answer is Chocolate,  thank you Carol!  Come join me there!

    Hi Diane, Your Valentine is awesome and I love the envelope liners. Perfect for a guy too. The photo editor sounds interesting. I use photoscape and love it, it offers a lot, but always up to trying something new. Thanks for the link.
    Have a great week.
    Hugs, Celestina Marie
