romantic love

all month we are celebrating love at the lunagirl moonbeams blog. link up a love-themed or valentine creation -- whether romantic, friendship, familial love, etc. -- for the change to win shopping credit at the lunagirl store.

this ATC is clearly in the "romantic" category.  featuring an image from the lunagirl "romance" collage sheet and a background design from dreamz etc., the embellishments are simple ones -- a heart cut from a commercial valentine card, an enamel dot, a vellum sentiment.

link up your creation until the end of the month.  if you use a lunagirl image you are entered twice.  the prize winner gets to shop at the lunagirl store!

love to all.

hello shoe lovers! i thought i'd share one last tag to encourage your participation in the "shoes" challenge jointly hosted by lunagirl moonbeams and the cheerful stamp pad.  link your shoe related creation at both blogs for the chance of a delightful prize from the lunagirl store. 

the background paper here is from the dreamzetc shop at etsy.  the lady and shoes are from lunagirl collage sheets of course.  the rest is stash as usual -- ribbons, borders, washi tape, flowers, etc!

challenge closes on july 2. 
enjoy; love to all.
