Happy Valentines!

My LOVE card featuring in the Fabulous Friday Challenge at Frosted Designs this week was so much fun! 
The starting point for planning this card began when I saw this wild card (here) from a blog I love to follow, Popsicle Toes. Donna's blog is awesome to follow as she does all kinds of work from the cute, the crazy and the freaky! I love it all!

So, the zebra and the pattern is all I had. 
Then I started thinking about the complex love we all have with our spouses. The love you can't explain in just one way...
 I embossed, I layered, I inked, I staze-on'd, I watercoloured, I distressed, I sticklesed, I rubbed on, I stamped, I punched, I crackle-painted, I gel-penned, I embellished and I chirped of course with Ornamental Iron!
 
Loved making this card! Thanks to Frosted Designs for the opportunity!I hope you are entering the Frosted Designs Fabulous Friday Challenge. Create a design using the word LOVE on it. You have until noon (CST) Thursday, Feb. 17 to link up your project! You can link up your project at Frosted Designs post here!

Happy Valentines everyone! Especially to my youngest little man... Happy Birthday!
