Tempting Lorali Thursday over at the WIS blog!!!

Tempting Lorali Thursday Featuring Magical Flamingos

Hi Everyone!! If you don't know by now, Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday of the year!! Not because I don't express my love to the people in my life on a daily basis...I just love the colors, the cute candies, the adorable papers, etc that are associated with this holiday. Cutsie, Cutsie, and Cutsie!! Today I paged through my storage book of Maigan's girls and I just wasn't struck...until I came to her Magical Flamingos. And then BINGO...I knew what I wanted to create. Simple, easy and PINK! My card measures 5 3/4" x 3". I have a black and white scrap of shiny DP as the background...I was going to color some of it in but I wanted to leave it clean. I used my sewing machine to do a cute loopy stitch for a border. I then stamped using my new Brilliance Ink Pad in Rocket Gold Red (love this color!) and heat set it. I colored in the Flamingos with my Copics and matted them with a scrap of black cardstock. I did a twist on the traditional zig zag stitch - it's a little bit more like a lightening bolt.

Lastly, I used my Doodlebug Designs rub-ons to incorporate the word LOVE at the top.
I hope you enjoyed my creation for today!!! Aren't these birds simply magnificent???

Happy Thursday Everyone!!!

XOXO-
Meredith
