Last Valentine of the Season

All my Valentine cards are now officially on their way! The last one to send out was for my godson Seth.

I had seen some cards that used the scallop circle punch to look like a bite mark. So I punched a "bite" into the heart and placed it by the alligator's mouth. Doesn't he look proud of his destruction?!

I wanted to emboss the sentiment but Stampin' Up! doesn't offer their In Colors as craft inks. So I stamped the sentiment into a Versamark pad, then into the Riding Hood Red classic ink pad, and then onto the cardstock. I used some clear embossing powder and ~~voila~~ embossed Riding Hood Red!


I hope Seth likes it!!

Cardstock: Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White
