The LOVE Challenge

Happy Monday! There’s a new challenge for you at Sweet Pea’s “One Sweet Challenge.” Our February theme is all about LOVE.

For my project I colored a beautiful image by Helena Reiss, “Follow Your Heart.” This beauty is available in digital format or as a rubber stamp, a format for everyone.



My “Follow Your Heart” is a digi. I have colored her with Copics and did some accenting with a red Spica pen. I used several die cuts for this card. After I cut the hearts, I added Stickles and then found some heart brads. I have had these for years and have never used them. I just fell in love with brads again. ;o) Most of the background paper is covered with a doily that I added some Distress Ink and then cut in-half.

Here’s a close up of Follow Your Heart.



Thanks for stopping by. I hope that you will join us over at One Sweet Challenge. You must use a Sweet Pea image for your chance to win. After you have completed your entry, please join us at our SPS Facebook group.

  1. Oooh Aletha I've got this stamp printed out ready to colour but I doubt I can do it the justice you have... your colouring is just delicious, the colours are so warm and the shading makes her hair shine with life and her body seem 3-dimensional. :)

    Such a pretty colour scheme on this card too and I love the shaped frame and the heart embellishments.
