My "funny" (nearsighted) Valentine . . .

Hey there my sweets . . . it's Thursday again . . . and that means it's time for another fun challenge at Mo's DP2 Challenge Blog!! This challenge is actually running for TWO WEEKS . . . so there's lots of time to join us in the fun!! Soooooo . . . my clever and oh-so-sweet Design Teamie, Tracy, is our hostess this week . . .  and she's chosen the theme . . .

Embossing!
(wet or dry . . . or both!)

Well, of course, being the overachiever that I can sometimes be, I went with BOTH . . . wet AND dry! hehe! What'cha think?

Isn't this the cutest image EVER?! OK . . . so, here's the story . . . (after all, it's always about the story, right?) . . . this is (can ya guess?) a Valentine!! Yep! Good guessing!! I made it for my sweet husband for a couple of reasons . . . one, he's kinda almost blind without his glasses! And two, when we first met, he sent me a little stuffed Hedgehog (which I still cherish)!! So, how perfect for his Valentine card, right? This image is called "You're kinda cute" and is available HERE in Mo's online store. Here's an extreme close-up of this little darlin' . . .

It cracks me up that this nearsighted little hedgehog is so "smitten" with a pincushion! LOL!! Here's a side view of my card . . .

As I said . . . I used both wet and dry embossing. I used a little "heart" embossing folder from "Crafts-Too" . . . and then I embossed the metal filigree corner with black embossing powder and then heated it (I applied two coats). Here's a closer look at my embossing efforts . . .
