Love Letters

How cute is she? I picked up this adorable digi at Designed2Delight Digi Stamps. I saw her on a challenge site all made up into a card, and just FELL IN LOVE! Her name is Kaela and she comes with the mailbox and a heart-shaped candy valentine box. Great deal! Please be sure to check out this digi shop... I bet you find some cuties, too!
Anyhooooo...I wanted a Valentine I could send my Daughter in college, so I HAD to use this little sweetie right away! I colored her with Prismacolor watercolor pencils and cut her out. Did the same with the mailbox, and then decided I wanted it cut out with an oval....kinda worked out cute. The DPs are retired from Stampin' Up, and the colors worked out perfectly. I LOVE how their papers all mix and match...
My card fits into a few of this weeks challenges, so I will enter it in the following:

Charisma Cardz - Valentine
Creative Cowgirls - Valentine
Papers Sundaes - Valentine
Paper Playtime - Anything Goes with a Digi

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope everyone is staying warm...tomorrow will be Day 3 for us here in NW Arkansas!

Hi Julie,
Very cute card, I like the little girl. Is the mailbox from the same set as the little girl?

A beautiful card Julie, the colours are gorgeous and the image is coloured beautifully. I bet it makes your daughter homesick when she receives this card from her lovely Mum.

Thank you for sharing your card with us at the Creative Cowgirls Challenge. :-) xx
