I have a real CAS (Clean And Simple) Valentine to share today. The pale pink card base has a gorgeous pearlized finish, so I didn’t want to clutter it up with a bunch of other stuff.

I used my Spellbinders Wizard and a Nestability die to cut out the white frame, then added an irridescent sticker. These are stickers I have had for years. I mean like over 15 years!! I was so proud of myself to actually USE a couple of them.  (I know — sheesh). After mounting the focal piece to the card with foam tape, I thought it just needed ’something’.  The little “You Are Loved” sentiment stamp seemed like a good fit … it came in an art case from Michaels a few years ago.

Here is a peek at the inside … I created it digitally and printed it off on white paper.

Yesterday is the best my back has been in three weeks. It’s a bit sore and tight today, as we met friends for dinner and I guess I was leaning into the table (to hear over the restaurant noise) instead of sitting back or upright in my chair. But I know it’s getting better - yay!!

Also, the new basement furniture comes this afternoon — I’m SO excited!

Thanks for stopping by today - enjoy your Saturday.
