SWALK The Kiss

Good evening folks

I love the SWALK rubber stamps from Crafters Companion and am gradually working my way through colouring each of the stamps I now own.  I coloured this image a couple of weeks ago and it has been sitting waiting patiently to be made up into a card!  So here it is:

 

The base card is a pre-scored 200mm square card blank and the two papers I have used for this card are both from the "Daisy Chain" section of the Word Books cd by Funky Hand.  I have printed the green backing paper onto Centura Pearl snow white card from Crafters Companion.  The stamped image has been coloured with FlexMarkers and ProMarkers and then cut using a Spellbinders die.  I have threaded the ribbon through this and attached it to the reverse of the green card.  The heart and the small flourishes are also cut using Spellbinders dies and I have gone lightly around the edge of the heart with a glue pen and a light sprinkling of crystal glamour dust.   Three small gems, a rose and the Love embellishment are all from my stash.  Unfortunately the daylight had gone by the time I got to make this card this afternoon and, despite using an Ottlite, the photograph looks quite dark.
