I used several prints from the collection as well as the chipboard. I distressed all of my paper edges using a bone folder. I did a little sewing with my sewing machine.
The wood veneers are from Studio Calico. The ink splats are from October Afternoon Midway Collection Mist-Token. I took a plain shipping tag and my trusty old Olivetti Typewriter (XOXO) and typed up some journaling and snippets for the hearts.
I used a couple of punches from Jenni Bowlin "file this & tab".
Now for my little trick, I had three photos that I wanted to fit on this layout. I cut a strip of kraft card stock and folded accordion style to fit the dimension of pictures leaving a small edge on the very last part of the strip for a pull tab.
I adhered the strip to my photos using very strong adhesive, I used scor-tape. I used one of the wood veneers on the edge as a pull tab. Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoyed my Valentine themed layout. I can't wait to see what the other team members have done with their Valentine themed stash.
