Canvas and Valentine Card...

This is the canvas finally finished... and yes, I did machine sew that ruffle bit along the bottom of it!!  Impressed?  Well, you should be as I am not really a sewing type of person and I am quite chuffed at how it turned out.  The photo is one of Chris' favourites and it is of our dolphin meeting when we were in Roatan last year on our cruise.  I thought these Graphic 45 Tropical Travelogue papers were perfect for the theme.
Here's a close-up of the flowers and the litte bottle with shells and message inside. Oh and guess what?  I must like as it has left the scraproom!!  Well, it's like this... not many of the things I make actually ever leave the scarproom - except for the stuff I give away, which obviously does.  So it is quite something for me to actually home something somewhere else in the house and this is now on our dresser in our bedroom.
It's a lovely bright splash of colour amongst the greys and browns.
and this is the card I made for Chris for Valentine's Day and I have to thank Cardarian for kindly allowing me to scraplift her card from last weeks woyww.  I just finished it... which sounds a lot worse than it actually is because he doesn't get home till tomorrow evening so it's not really late. LOL
