I always make more Valentines than I send. I get caught up in the colors and before you know it, there are four new cards in my stash! That's what happened when I started designing my card for Color Hues #80 - Red and Pink!
My binder of stencils was out, and I found an oldie from Artplorations that nearly jumped into my hands. You may remember the last time I used it in yellow - it is still one of my favorite makes! Here she is again in a gradient from pink to red - a closeup of all that fabulous gloss seems in order ...

Since red and pink don't ALWAYS have to be saved for Valentine's Day,
I used a fun sentiment stamp/die from Pigment Craft Co. - but
added a little heart with it - did you find it?
You know by now that I don't like to waste ink ... here is my 'clean up'
which was die cut before adding another hello friend!
