Bliss Valentine



 i finally made this afternoon "my" afternoon if you will...it felt like forever since i got to hole up in my stamp room and just play during nap time! the last few times i tried, i would get interrupted, pulled away, way to tired and just couldn't find my mojo! well it felt like it all came back! i only worked on Valentine things today, but I'm tickled w/ how they turned out!

These little hot air balloon rub ons are in the Occasions Mini right now, and i had to scratch my head for a bit b4 i came up w/ an idea. I began by paging through the big caty for a sketch/layout idea and took it from there. i always change a few things up to make it 'mine' but i need to start from somewhere!

this is my first time using the seam binding ribbon that first came out in the Christmas mini, and it's real soft and nice to work with. That color is just plain yummy! if it was confusing for u w/ the 'seam binding' in the name...at first i thought it was for sewing only or something....it's not...has nothing to so w/ that actually. It's just the name.
