I love the shabby chic and romantic cards so I thought I would make one for my granddaughter's valentine card. She's three and full of sweetness. I don't know if she'll understand the corrugated cardboard and cheesecloth. :-) As she gets older, maybe we can have crafting dates and I can teach her about these things.
I'll enter my card into these challenges: A Creative Romance where they have a sketch this time.

Wasn't sure I was on your blog there for a moment! Looky at you with all those layers! Fabulously done!! The flowers are gorgeous and that sentiment is great! My son and I play a game every week using it. First one to tell the other they love them more on Monday gets dibs all week :) Been playing it for years and he still does even as a teenager. Love it!
Very cute Benzi, Wow you can do layers. I am impressed. I love the image and all of your details are so Awesome. I absolutely love it......
Just a darling design, the sweet colored image and layers make a cute card.

Granddtr only needs to understand that her loving Grammy made her a beautiful card all for her very own self! This is so pretty with all these little feminine frills & I love that image. The pretty doily (oh I see you've used the modeling paste --inspiration--! and that silver rub on the doily. More inspiration. I'm liking all these lovely techniques & materials you've used here. That image is perfect for a sweet little Miss! TFS & hope you're keeping warm.
What Sweet and Gorgeous card Benzi! Love all the details...so very pretty :)
This is adorable, Benzi! You and your granddaughter will have lots of fun creating when she gets a little older! This is a keepsake card!
This is just over-the-top stunning! The layering is perfection and the embellishments are just beautiful! Your DGD will hopefully treasure this for years to come! Well done!!
Gorgeous!!! Lovin' your layers and embellishments! This is definitely a keepsake for your granddaughter.
This cold weather is making me hibernate and I really dislike it! Hope your pipes do well. Keep warm!
Very pretty! And Yes, I do hope you get to someday make cards with your DGD. Those were some of the best memories for me. (My Granddaughter is a teen now...and doesn't get together as much with GrandMom)
I love shabby chic too, don't do often enough. This is gorgeous..sweet image.
Wow - this is gorgeous! I love all the layers and the corrugated cardboard. Sweet image and it is even sweeter knowing it is going to your darling Grand-daughter. I am guessing she will think it is beautiful and feel very special. Such a lovely card Brenda - I love when you do elaborate cards. Hugz!!! Stay warm today!

WOWzer Brenda is this a gorgeous card for you sweet granddaughter!! Hopefully her mama will put it away for her for some future time that you can share with her how to make such a beauty!!
Yes, crafting classes will be so special! What a beautiful card! A darling image and although she may not get it now...she will treasure your work and special touches later!
She will love it. The little ballerina is precious.
Such a pretty card, lovely colours & design xxx
Wow! Stunning card Benzi. Adorable image. Love the layout too. Very sweet.
That's one of my favorite all-time ballerina images and she's just so perfect for a little girl. Great works with the shabby chic, Benzi! Love all the layers.
Aw! Since she's so young, maybe she won't get all those details her grandma put into this card, but hopefully her mommy will save it and let your GD treasure it as she gets older.
Hey Benzi, Had to look twice to make sure I was on the right blog...lol This is wonderful...Love those layers and all the embellishments are awesome. Great job...Hugz, joann
Awww how sweet is this! How do you switch styles so easily? I'm always a bit stumped by shabby chic, just can't do it!
Oh, and I'm surprised you aren't already having crafty play dates ;)
Wow, the perfect card for the perfect GD. She will love this and actually treasure it I am sure. That heart, the flowers and flourishes and the cluster of hearts will capture hers!
