Valentine for the Secret Crafter and another New Manga Release ..................

Good morning to you all in the land of blog
cannot believe I had to wait to share this lovely creation with you, as it is another new release from the Secret Crafter shop.  This one is called chocs and flowers. and is available here at a fabulous price of  £2.99                      in the digi format, although it should not be long before the polymer is available too.

and it is perfect for this week's challenge at

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge

the theme chosen by the very talented Tracie is

VALENTINE

Here is my design team creation with this stunning new image
I have created an easel card.  I have used some of my non flocked GCD Studios Paris Nights papers and contrasted this with black.  The image plate has been cut with the smallest grand circle nestie and the image frame is a Marianne creatable die as are the flourishes.  The red roses from various places.  The roses on the image are in fine red flower soft, the sentiment is an MSE as is the inner sentiment.  The gems are from the Hobby House.

Here is a close up of the image
Another stunning Manga image don't you think and a pleasure to colour up with my favourite copics and a little clear glitter sakuro pen for the rose wrap paper.

I am entering this creation into the following challenges

    Wonderful work - I love the brown and red color combo and that handsome young Romeo is so beautifully colored. Fab work with the Flowersoft, it really jazzes up the image. So glad you came and played with the fairies ad Fairy Fun Friday!
