Good morning to all my fabulous friends....hope your week is going well! This is my final card for Valentine. I am featuring the adorable Tilda with heart arrows from the Love Collection. As you can see, I wanted to get a little creative with this card. I'm getting brave and experimenting with more mediums....attempting to expand my horizons. I love living in the country, but, unfortunately, it does not afford me the possibilities of attending workshops on mixed media. This is definitely something I will pursue when I'm retired, even if I have to travel to do it!
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I appreciate it very much. Big Hugs, Christina
Wow.....what a wonderful card, love all your details.

Your card is beautifully done Christina! Why am I always the last one on the block to see it!!!! You will love mixed media - I live back in the country too and get all my stuff on line.
