I ♥Jeff Gordon♥ oh and some cards...lol

Happy Friday!
Did you all watch the Gatorade Duels yesterday afternoon?! Did you see who won the 1st race?!
Oh you guessed it!
♥Jeff Gordon♥
Today I'm doing another craft with Chloe's class after lunch. I had a hard time deciding what to do with the kids....lol
Finally I decided on this Valentine. I tried to design it so it could be used as a bookmark if they like. Of course I coloured mine with Copic markers but they will use pencil crayons or markers...whatever they like. I've stamped and punched all the pieces so it will go quickly.
Here is a close up:
Stamps: Bubs the Beaver; Cardstock: PTI Poppy, White, Regal Rose; Inks: Memento Black; Accessories: Copics, Heart Punches
Thursday's Ways To Use It Challenge was to use fabric on your card. I decided to use some cool Cotton Scraps from Crafty Secrets for my card. I cut out the image I wanted to use and then frayed the edges a little bit. Pretty simple card but I like how it turned out and I used black!
Cardstock: Black, WW, Pretty in Pink; Accessories: Crafty Secrets Cotton Scraps, Swiss Dots Embossing Folder, Antique Brads, Pretty in Pink Ribbon, Long Rectangle Nesties, Dimensionals
Thanks for stopping by today!
