While I was working on this card, I could hear American Idol Fantasia Barrino singing these very words inside my head. She must have made quite an impression on me back in 2004! I used the sketch from this week’s StampTV challenge (STVSCJH08) and a color combination that was “suggested” to me (wink, wink).
I paper pieced the envelope image from the Sung from the Heart set by stamping it a second time on Blush Blossom card stock and cutting it out. The hearts were colored in with a red marker. The cute little heart brads from Recollections (a Michaels brand) were just perfect to fill in the empty space on the tag.
