Barb's Saturday Post - Say Cheese!

Hi Everybody!

With Valentine's Day quickly approaching, I found myself needing some fun, but quick-to-make cards for friends.

This time around I found inspiration in Fitztown's Cutie 8 image.

Anyone who's been my friend for more than five minutes, knows that my love of cheese is a fairly deep and enduring love. So, saying that I love them more than cheese is really saying a lot about how much I value their friendship! Just don't ask if I love you more than coffee... you'll only be facing disappointment. I have limits, y'know?

For this card, I simply added the sentiment before I printed out the image. Then I colored in everything with a combination of color pencils and pastels. I also gave it a little "bling" by doing the dots on the bow and the necklace with Liquid Pearls. To make the eyes look watery, I added a drop of clear glue.

For that small, extra touch, I used my heart punch before I adhered the completed image to my red cardstock.

Thanks and happy crafting!
