Happy Valentine's Day

The Queen wanted to make a Valentine's card
for all her loyal royal fans...  To let you all know
how much she love creating for her Royal followers.
The Queen hopes that she inspire you
to challenge yourself and to create...
The Scrapbooking Queen also does project
that she may never have tried if it would not for
someone inspiration or blog post...
Here is such a card a Tri~Fold Shutter...
Check out this great video done by

Now this is my very first attempt at
this really fun and inspiring card... I would suggest
you watch the video and make one too...
Now this card is best used with matching papers
The paper I used was a
Heart Cookie Shaped Valentines open stock
{I had this paper for 15 yrs}
I matched this up with the plaid paper from
DCWV Sweet Glitter Stack
My card base was HOT PINK texture open stock
 and the base Krafts Stock..
I cut out a cute heart with the cricut
and just matched the papers.
Used soft sheer pink ribbon for bow.
I also inked around this for effect and stitched
with my Royal white Gel Pen.
I also stamped the card with
"You had me at chocolate"

So I hope that everyone has a
Royal Valentine's Day...
