A Rosy Valentine

One more simple card to show this evening:

I am linking this card up to the Dynamic Duos Color Challenge #35
A breath of spring with yellow and green:


I substituted in the CTMH colours Creme Brulee and Sweet Leaf, and used the stamp-of-the-month,
S1301--Happy Valentine's.
I stamped the image in Memento's Rich Cocoa ink (I believe neutral brown is now ok on the DD challenge) and coloured it with a combination of CTMH alcohol ink and Copic markers in shades of the soft yellow and green. Not your typical Valentine's colours, but pretty none-the-less. A little paper-piercing seemed the right embellishment to this vintage image, along with a flower button and some twine.
Thanks for visiting,
Caroline
