PBSC February - Anything Goes (Optional 'Love is in the Air!')

It's the first Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for a new Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:

'Anything Goes'
or
'Love is in the Air!'

As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:
Prize - a $20 voucher!

I picked a cute puppy image from the 'Every Which Way' set, stamping him on to a snippet of watercolour paper, colouring him using watercolour paper, then carefully cutting him out. I made a simple background for him with a snippet of sky coloured paper from the 'Mystery Marbles' pad by Craft Sensations, which I then embossed using my 'Heart Gradient' embossing folder from Hobbycraft. I lightly sanded over the embossing to reveal some of the white core, then distressed the edges a little. I matted it on to a snippet of pink card, then added the pup on top using 3D foam pads. The sentiment is from the 'Sending Sunshine' set by Simon Says Stamp.


I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
