Art With No Boundaries Ezine Vol. 3 - Guest Artist

I'm a Guest artist at Art With No Boundaries Ezine Vol.3 and this time with a Valentine card! =)

Giz Valentine

When I first saw Giz the cat I got this idea that he would look good on a Valentine, so I decided to see if that would work out. I first printed out Giz and colored him with my promarkers, so that he looked ready for Valentine in his striped top. 
Then I remembered the tutorial by Candy from the January's issue about changing the color of digital images and opened Word for Windows and managed to change the color of the Live, Love, Sing & Dance background from CS Designs to a red/brown color, which worked great as a background for Giz!

I choose a red cardstock as the card base and added the background with double sided tape, then added Giz with 3D foam that were leftovers from an earlier project. Something more was needed so I found some charms I bought earlier with double hearts and added a red ribbon with small dots to the charm and it's attached with a glue dot.  I had some leftover ribbon so that's what Giz is standing on. 
This was my first valentine this year and I'm happy with how the card turned out!
