Henry's heart

One of our nieghbours asked me a few days ago to make a card for his girlfriend (soon to be fiancee hpoefully!!) to celebrate a year together. He is taking her away for a romantic wekend to celebrate and hopefully she'll say yes to his proposal - ahhhhhhhh!

Anyway I have no children this morning so I have finally made the card (cutting it a bit fine as he wants it tonight LOL!!). I used the colours from Colour Create (she adores pink!!) and as it is a 1st anniverary card of sorts I am also entering it in to the Cute Card Thursday challenge.
I watercoloured Henry and used my nesties to cut him out. I inked the edges of the image and dp with brown ink. Lots of heart paper and its PINK!!!! No flowers as while she a pink girl, she doesn't do flowers or fuss! I stamped the sentiment in sepia to keep with the brown and pink theme.

Hopefully she will like it.


Recipe:
Stamp(s): WOJ Henry and heart; Penny Black sentiment
Colouring Media: distress inks
Papers: Basic Grey Bittersweet
Embellishments: ribbon from stash
