A quote for my daughter...

This is my card for my oldest daughter for Valentine's Day. She doesn't like cute images much, but really loves quotations.

The quote is one from a set by Cloud 9 designs and has been stamped onto one of the new Nestability labels. To soften the white background I applied a swirly peel off, chalked over the top of it and then removed it leaving a subtle white image.

My card is also for the challenge at http://createdbyhandchallenge.wordpress.com/ where the challenge is to be creative using a love quote.

Materials used:
  • black card
  • Dovecraft Vintage Papers
  • Cloud Nine Clear Stamp
  • Nestability Label die cuts
  • cream organza ribbon from stash

I am not so much into quotes, but I must admit these labels make you like them. I have a similar sentiment card on my blog.
