A Love card

Hi All.
Today I have a simple card which is, more often than not, my style.  I used an old Stampin Up stamp and old paper.  Everything I have is old since I haven't crafted for a couple of years.  Poor Hobby Lobby was probably hurt financially!!
I stamped the sentiment on water color paper, embossed with white powder and rubbed Distress Inks on it to make the word pop.  Then I used a Spellbinders die cut.  I added some glitter hearts and a wonky bow and called it done!
I'll be entering it in the following challenges:
Thanks for coming by and having a peek!

Is it Love?!

I think my card is about love and I hope you will agree.  I designed this card following a sketch on Die Cuttin Divas' blog and I plan to send it to Operation Write Home for our troops.
The image is by Inkadinkado. The sentiment is "I miss you" by Clearly Wordsworth.  You have to love someone in order to miss them, right?!  That being said, I 'm entering the card in the following challenges:

With a Friend's Help

Hi!
A friend of mine, Fran, has a Cricut and one day we cut out some stencils using vinyl.  I have used one of them colored with Distress inks for my card today.
  At first I was a bit stumped as to what to do with the swirl thingee, but I played around a bit and came up with this final card.  I'm entering it in the following challenges:

Timidly coming back!

Hi!

After a long rest, I'm coming back to card making and blogging.  I have completely forgotten how to use Blogger, so there may be an embarrassing learning curve!



I've created a card using Inkadinka Doos stamps colored with Ranger Distress inks. I am entering it in the following challenges, if I can remember how to do that...

I think that will be all for now,
