I wanted to go for something a bit masculine so started on the basic black and I have done a bit of tearing and distressing edges and scrunching the little circle to give it that kind of worn in look... I never really considered the stamp set Always to be a Valentines day set but the sentiments are really sweet for the special man in your life. This one says 'always on my mind-forever in my heart.' There is another one that says 'You mean everything to me' - also a delightful sentiment for your valentine!
Recipe:
Stamp set: Always
Cardstock: Basic black, Kiwi kiss, Whisper white
Ink: Whisper white craft, Kiwi kiss
Accessories: Kiwi kiss satin ribbon and jumbo grommets (Summer mini catalogue)
You can always take the whisper white ink up a notch by heat embossing it to really make it stand out.
Happy Stamping!
Love, Claire

Wow - that heart looks amazing on Kiwi Kiss! A great idea for a more masculine card - I love how you've used the grommet. Thanks for playing!
What a great Masculine Card...love the way you have done the grommet & ribbon. Love this Stamp Set too.
love your colour combo and love the grommet and ribbon.
This is such a great colour combo especially for a masculine card.
Masculine is SO hard for me, but you've pulled it off brilliantly here!
