Thanks a Bundle

I made this card for the Sketch Challenge at SCS today.  It uses both Happy Heart Day and the Regal Rose Ribbon included in SU’s Bundle Special.  Although this is thought of as a Valentine Set, I intentionally did NOT make this card a Valentine — it is a thank you note.  I think it is important to point out that this set has a greater longevity than February 14.  Only 2 of the stamps in the set refer to Valentine’s Day.  I see this set as very usable for children’s cards and thank you cards throughout the year!

My elephant is paper pieced with Rose Red Prints DP — fun!!!  And can you see her toenails and fingernails are painted with a White Gel Pen?   The other images are colored with a Blender Pen and pad ink.  The heart on top of the trunk has Dazzling Diamonds.  The green *grass* is Certainly Celery Prints DP with a scallop top I made using the Corner Rounder with the guard removed.  The background dotted DP is a sheet from the new Bali Breeze DP pack.  The scallop is mounted on a dimensional.  The *thank you* was stamped in 2 steps using the Stamp-a-ma-jig.  Fun, fun set to play with!!!
