Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #21 AND PPA #24

Dawn McVey has another Color Challenge and the colors are perfect for a masculine Valentine's Day card (not to mention EVERYTHING looks like Valentines to me since I'm making 70 cards for a nursing home and also trying to make some cards for Winter Sim's Valentine Card request for St Jude's Children's Hospital.) I also used the sketch from PPA #24 for this card. I just LOVE the simple sketch they used for their challenge!

I also had the chance to use my BRAND NEW stamp set I got in the mail today! It's the first stamp set from Courtney Baker for Practicing Creativity and I think it is just FAB! It's a great price and is just so cute!

Here's my card - Hope you like it!


RECIPE:
Ink - SU Close to Cocoa
Paper - PTI Brown, Lemon Tart, Aqua Mist, Cream
Stamp Sets - PTI Heart Prints, PTI Background Basics Hearts, Practicing Creativity Designs by Courtney Baker - Key To My Heart
