H2H Challenges: Share the Love with Shades of Red, Black, and White

Heart 2 Heart Challenges has the unique opportunity to join with the Color Dare challenge blog to "Share the Love" this week using shades of red, Black, and White Daisy.  The simple Valentine that I made for my husband seemed to fit the bill.

Confession time: I have to give credit to combining the Charming Cascades stamp set with Share the Love stamp set to my talented Design Team member, Lauren Moore.  To begin, I stamped the typewriter in Black on a White Daisy 4.75"x3.5" panel and then made a mask to cover the stamped image.  Then, after applying the mask, I stamped the Charming Cascades hearts in Hollyhock.  (My first attempt was Cranberry, but then the Love You sentiment didn't pop.)  I pulled off the mask and stamped Love You in Cranberry.  Then I used my little handheld heart punch to punch a heart out of red shimmer trim which I then stuck on top of the stamped heart.

The background panel is from the La Vie en Rose paper pack.  I added a strip of red shimmer trim across this piece.  Then, I swiped the edges the panel with Cranberry ink before adhering it to the center of the card.

Be sure to check out all of the fabulousness this week as we at H2H join the Color Dare!  Please link your project up to both challenges!
