This week at SUO Challenges we want to see your Valentine creations made with two main colors.  Of course neutrals can be added (because they usually just have to be)!

Now the design team has put together some stunning cards but my focus had to be Valentine’s for my boys’ classes.  I got to go home over the weekend but time for stamping was pretty limited as you can imagine.  The boys chose the candy they wanted to give (Sweethearts) and I designed this for the packaging.  It is very hard to see but I did sponge a sky with clouds behind the balloon.  I guess I’ll need to make it a little darker on the rest!  I love this phrase and it does seem pretty fitting for my house don’t you think??  You’ll be amused to know that I stamped all the balloons I need and brought them back to Denver to cut out this week.  Even fussy cutting seems better than studying!!  *smile*  The boys like the result and I guess that is the most important part!

Make sure you go look at the beautiful artwork from the rest of the design team.  Such elegant cards!!  You will surely be inspired to join us!

Back tomorrow with another Freshly Made Sketches challenge.  Thanks so much for stopping in today!  Have a great day!
