SIP #185 Clean and Simple Valentine with Lil' Inker Designs Filled Heart and Concord & 9th Dip-Dyed Cards

Hi friends.  This is a super tough week for me.  We lost our sweet 16 year old beagle, Abby, after an illness that had lasted a few months.  I feel like she took a piece of my heart with her.  Here's a picture of her in her prime.  She was probably around 4 years old in this picture.

 Luckily this week's Stamp, Ink, Paper Design Team project was a CAS Valentine's card so it came together really quick without too much stress.

I started out with one of the awesome Concord & 9th Dip- Dyed Cards and Envelopes.  They have such a cool watercolor wash of color on them and make card making so easy!

So I took this challenge so literally.... Clean and Simple.  I stamped the Lil' Inker Designs Filled Heart directly onto the card base with Versafine Black Onyx Ink.  I then stamped my "Be Mine" sentiment in the center of that with the same ink.  I added a piece of Gold Twine along the fold and then added three gold metallic dots to finish it off.  Can you believe how simple this one was?
