Adore You, from Concord & 9th


Used the awesome Love You, Mean It set from Concord & 9th to make a Valentine for the husband.  

Stamped the sentiment and hearts first and gold embossed; watercolored with Spun Sugar and Spiced Marmalade Ranger Distress Stains (I should send the bill for my Distress Stains to Julie Ebersole, as her use of them has definitely inspired by purchases) on watercolor paper.  

Randomly inked the edges of the panel with Versamark and gold embossed and adhered the panel on an A2 white card.  I wanted the loose, random look.  Hope he likes it!
 

MOOD WHEN DONE = Pleased!! (This is the second version of the card.  In the first one, I tried adding embossing powder randomly on the front of the card, the way Carly did on this fabulous card, but literally made a hot mess!)
