Delightful Challenges

Good Morning!  I hope this week is going really well for you.  It is for me, too.  I can't believe Thursday is already here.  Already February is off to a rocket start.

This week's challenge at Delightful Challenges is...

Love

And here's my card featuring a very sweet Mermaid.


Now I did do a little no-no.  I didn't have the right sentiment in my collection of Delighful Digis by Louby Loo, so I did create my own with some stamps.  This is why I need to not do my cards last minute.  My apologies to Wendy.

However, not a no-no was to use this great sketch from ICSketches for inspirational layout.  This also fits the challenge for The Pink Elephant who is celebrating their 3rd birthday.  Happy Birthday TPE!!
