Hello, hello!
Amy here with another Scenic Saturday and while we all anxiously await our new release orders I figured now was a good time to look through my Stamping Bella binders and find some older stamps that have been waiting to get inky. Lately I’ve been on a roll challenging myself to create nontraditional Valentine’s cards, scenes of love and friendship that don’t necessarily rely on the usual pink, red and hearts to convey those loving feelings. So when I saw this sweet Cave Couple stamp I knew I had a winner. I paired these two Neolithic lovebirds with theCave Kids Backdrop which provided plenty of details and interest with very little effort on my part… love it when that happens! Coloring it all in was pretty straight forward, the only minor change up was extending the river down past where the stamped image ended but that is easy peasy. Looking at these two, I like to think that the sunflower isn’t just a romantic gesture but a practical gift as well… I’m sure this stone aged cutie will find the seeds quite delicious too, LOL! 😉
Stay crafty my friends!
Hi Amy, What a cute card and a genius way to use your stash to make the perfect Valentine! Love what you said about the sunflower seeds! I admire your coloring and the way you extended the river backdrop. Thanks for sharing your sweet card!
The cutest non-traditional Valentine card. Love the background scene and the cave couple. So creative.
Sweet Valentine scene with this prehistoric couple!
I like this scene. I’m glad for some ideas that don’t involve the usual reds and hearts.
