It's not a newspaper!  It's a Valentine's Card!  I had two different challenges this week that I liked for my weekly stamping time.  2 weeks down 50 to go on my 2011 Resolution!
The first challenge was the 
Utah Diva's Inspiration Challenge #129 and the second was 
Utah Diva's Sketch Challenge for January 8th.
 The Inspiration
 The Sketch
I used the my new favorite ribbon technique - scrunchie ribbon along with some masking, and Amazing Glaze to make the center heard very thick and glossy.  I'm mostly satisfied with the result although I wish my Black ink didn't have a Blue hue to it.  I may have to order a new one this month to see if there is a difference.
Supplies
Stamp Sets: I {Heart} Hearts, Seeing Spots, and Sweet Spot
Ink: Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler
Black Satin Ribbon, Polka Dot Embossing Folder
Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black
 
great idea combining the sketch challenges carrie. i love your card and the ribbon just finishes it off perfectly. thanx for playing with the udi challenges. :)
