To the Love of My Life

Hello Everyone!
Всем привет!

Only several days left before St. Valentine's Day, and almost every challenge is themed about Love, tenderness etc. I am not a big fan of hearts and cupids in my cards, so today I am sharing a card dedicated to Love, but without traditional symbols. I am still enjoying the Altenew Painted Poppy stamp set. If you follow me on Instagram, probably, you've seen already the first card I made three days ago. I'll show you a couple more projects soon. I find this set very eloquent and flexible.

До Дня Всех Влюблённых осталось всего ничего, и почти все конкурсы сейчас посвящены теме Любви. Я не очень люблю сердечки и амурчиков, и поэтому моя открытка сегодня хоть и о любви, но без традиционных символов предстоящего праздника. Я все еще экспериментирую с новым набором штампов Altenew Painted Poppy (Мак). Если Вы подписаны на меня в Instagram, то, наверно, видели три дня назад первую открытку с маками. В ближайшие дни я покажу еще несколько работ в другом стиле и техниках. На мой взгляд, очень удачный набор штампов, выразительный и гибкий.
Greeting Card with Painted Poppy Altenew. Sweet Kobylkin
This card is pretty easy to make. To add some vividness I heat embossed the dark middle of the flower with AC Zing! Chestnut EP and created a two-tone image of the bud.

Открытка проста в исполнении, но я решила немного оживить её и сделала горячее тиснение тычинок мака, а лепестки закрытого бутона напечатала в двух оттенках.
I am entering this card to the following challenges this week:
Я подаю эту открытку в следующие конкурсы на этой неделе:
Just Us Girls #279 - Love/ Любовь
Наше Хобби (Our Hobby) - Heartfelt Colour Combo/ Сердечная палитра
Viva La Vista - a card about love/ Открытка о любви
CASology #133 - Love/ Любовь
and The Male Room #03 - Valentine Themed Projects/ Валентинка

Thanks for stopping by! I wish a nice evening!
Спасибо, что заглянули! Всем приятного вечера!
