Here is my card for today, using Birdbrain Conversation Hearts:
Isn't she just too darn cute? My card didn't start out clean and simple; I had initially picked a sketch and some DPs, then colored the image to coordinate. Well, I just wasn't loving it.... So I picked another DP and didn't really love that either.... I decided to go with the red card base and just let the adorable image shine...sometimes clean and simple is the way to go! The image is colored with pencils and I've added some glitter accents.
