I have one more Taylored Expressions project to share with you this week, and it's this uber-sparkly Valentine!
I stamped Graphic Greetings Valentine in brown Memento ink, inked the edges a bit with Antique Linen distress ink, and colored the arrow in the bottom right corner with a ShinHan Touch Twin marker. I then gave the entire stamped image a good spray of adhesive and dusted on the glitter. Boy, does it shimmer and shine!! I used two heart pins to dress up the bow a bit. The pins were much longer when I started, but I carefully snipped off some of their length with my always-handy Leatherman tool. *grin*

I kind of find it funny that you bling up some cards with alot of glitter. You seem more like denim and leather than diamonds! But I really can see you with your trusty leatherman :) hugs.... Oh, and I do like the card. *wink*

That's so funny about the "Leatherman." I won one at some sales meeting event a long time ago and was so mad. What a waste of a gift I thought. I have used it so many times and actually keep it in my glove compartment. Love it.
