I recently took part in a Blogger's Valentine Swap and this Tuesday, I got my swaps back in the mail. What fun it was to open that envelope and ooh and ahh over all the cute cards that came back. What an amazing and talented bunch of women!

I'm going to start the swap off with Amy Rysavy's card. Amy is an amazing artist! Her blog always has something new to ooh and ahh over! I LOVE seeing what she has to share with us every day.
Amy has such a definite style and attention to detail.
Amy stamped the little bug from the SU! Olive You set, masked him then stamped the a*muse small oval stamp. She colored him in using Prismacolor Pencils
and Gamsol, added the Romantic Red glitter to the heart, and the google
eyes of course. After punching it out she doodled a border around it,
then matted it onto a black giga scalloped circle.
The card base is stamped w/ Linen (really hard to see in the pictures
but in real life it gives it a nice textured look) and the Lots of
Hearts jumbo wheel.
She stamped the sentiment onto scrap CS then punched it out w/ her Stampin' Up! Word Window punch.

Thank you, Amy, for such an adorable card!
