For example, you can use Layers, Ovals, Violet, and Embellishments; see spells love. Or you could use Lily, Owls, Very pretty sequins and Emerald brads. Spells love. The possibilities are endless and yes, V can stand for very! Just remember that four of your elements must spell LOVE. Have Fun, can't wait to see what you come up with!

LOVE this challenge so had to take part myself (not for the prize of course but for the fun of it). Here is what I came up with:


L is for layers (I hope you can see them but I used a lot of foam cubes on this one)

O is for Ovals

V is for velvet (I used yummie Doodlebug Crushed Velvet Cardstock, I hope it shows on the pictures, I think it's gorgeous IRL)

E is for embellishments
I used this very sweet Kiki stamp from the new set. Unfortunatelly I had to draw the things on the head of the butterfly (no idea what they are called in English) since I couldn't cut them out and I wanted to use layers so I had to draw them. Velvet isn't the best surface to draw on so they aren't as pretty as Melissa's.

Thank you Ria for the idea of using a slize of my Fimo cane (see a post down) as an embellishment on my card. The butterfly charm I bought in the store where I had the Fimo workshop (love it) and the beads and flowers are from stash. The sentiment reads 'Sterkte' which means Strength in Dutch, I'm going to send this card today to somebody who is going to undertake surgery tomorrow. Just a little card to let her know she's on my mind. The gorgeous green paper is from Heidi Grace designs and it's shimmery and glittery... love it! The cardstock is from stash.

That's it really. I hope you agree with me that Jannah came up with a LOVEly challenge and I hope you'll join us in the fun. Love to see your creations!!

Have a great day!!
