Seeing Red!

Wow! Can you believe that Valentine's Day is next week?! Wasn't it just Christmas! LOL! Seems that time just flies by! Valentine's Day is not a big thing at my house, in fact most years it gets overlooked. Having my blog & searching out all of these fun challenges has really put me in the "mood" to celebrate it this year!
This creation was inspired when I found the sentiment on Sentimental Sundays which I found through Free Digital Stamps. (Let me tell you, this blog is awesome!) I instantly saw lots of red glitter & flames or swirls every where! (the flames didn't turn out how I saw in my mind so they got scrapped!) I used: Bazzil cardstock in Ruby Slipper, DP is My Minds Eye (except for the red hearts, it came from my scrap pile), red glitter glue, the swirls & the hearts are stamps from The {Stamps} of Life, the bling is from my stock pile, flower is Prima, Glossy Accent, chalks, & I applied Ranger Ind distressing ink in Firebrick behind the words love & fire using a blender pen.
Challenges that inspired me:
The Crafty Ho's "Love Theme"
The Creative Cowgirls "Love is in the Air"
Kraftin Kimmies Seeing Red
Bee Crafty "Love"
Stamp Something "Digi Days"
Crazy4Challenges "Valentines Day"
