Such an amazing card and envelope Astrid, really gorgeous and much more me than all the soft pink and reds, that I find is more for small girls, but that´s mayabe just me ha ha, but I do love this one very very much. You did a wonderful job on it.

I have just came back from CCP blog and this is one of the most beautiful grungy Valentine cards I've ever seen, Astrid! That coordinated envelope is simply brilliant! I adore the way how you treated those wooden embellies and your colours are wonderful! Absolutely stunning! Hugs! Branka x

I did go and see your Valentine -- I thought to myself "Sandy - this would make a great something for Halloween"! I hate to admit it but I am not much for Valentine's Day - except for the chocolate!
Everything you make is fabulous Astrid!

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
