A note from Rachelle Anne Miller:

I am an artist & designer living in the beautiful Adelaide Hills in South Australia with my husband and three amazing children! I love to create and am especially drawn to all things cute. I've worked on children's books, greeting cards, craft supplies, children's room decor, tech accessories, and more. I love to bring out joy and imagination in my art and create something a little different to inspire and make you smile.

Using Gnomes #2, #5 and #6 from the Mr Gnome Valentine Image Set by Last Minute Manda, I made this Valentine card, with lots of hearts 😀

I used the Silhouette to put this card together.  I designed the card base using several different files and used it to cut out the gnomes too.

It was a very simple card to put together, except that everything that could go wrong did.  So the several of the hearts (making the card too busy, in my opinion) were strategically placed to hide the fact that only only did I drop the stamp on it, but it bounced.  Then, for some reason, my liquid glue pooled on all four corners and left a wrinkle effect on the top layer of the card.  Well, that too had to be hiden, so more hearts to the rescue.  And finally, my red copic marker gave up the ghost half way thru my colouring of these cute gnomes.  I tell you, it was just one of those crafty days!

So instead of thinking that this card is too busy, I'm going to choose to think of it as it's carrying loads and loads of love to the recipient 😀

I thought I would share with you the Gnomes Image Set I used.  So many cute gnomies, just perfect for all your Valentine cards! 💕

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you liked my card, and feel inspired to get crafty and come play along with us. You have until 12:00 pm, CST, on 7 March 2023, to link your project to our challenge.
