Swirly Fun

Today's card is for this week's color challenge over on SCS to use Blue Bayou, Soft Sky and Real Red. At first I wasn't feeling this color combination, but I think it turned out all right in the end. I started with the two hearts from Heart to Heart. I stamped the larger heart in Blue Bayou and the smaller heart twice in Soft Sky. I then punched the hearts out with my Super Jumbo and Mega Marvy heart punches and sponged with Soft Sky and Blue Bayou ink. Next I taped a piece of Blue Bayou and Soft Sky cardstock together and ran it through my Cuttlebug using the D'Vine Swirls embossing folder. The sentiment is from the Flirty Phrases set and I used the frame stamp from Thoughtful Phrases around it and then punched out with the Word Window punch. for a little embellishment, I stamped the small heart from Wild Thing in Real Red and then lightly went over the middle with a blender pen to lift a little of the color. The polka dot ribbon was a find in the $1 bin at Michael's a while back.
