Love and Romance at PanPastel UK

Good morning, brrrrrr its blinking freezing here again but hopefully this will warm the cockles of your heart (whatever they are lol) as its time for  a new challenge over at PanPastel UK and this week our theme is love and romance. 


I've used red iron oxide and black PanPastels for this tag. I coloured the tag with red and then used a mask to create the background with a little black PanPastel.  I stamped the sentiment and embossed with gold EP. I used the same colours for the hearts and  stamped and embossed the red PanPastel with black EP and the black PanPastel with sparkly red EP. The gorgeous heart stamps are from Chocolate Baroque.  I added some scraps of ribbon, a lovely fluffy black feather  that I've been hoarding for ages and some red wired gems to finish off.

I'm entering this tag in the following challenges:
Aud Sentiments: anything but a card with a sentiment
Crafting for all seasons: love is in the air
Creative Belli: hearts/valentine
Forever night : unlock my heart
Tuesday Thowdown: be my Valentine

You don't need to use PanPastels to enter our challenge (although we love it if you do) and our lucky winner will receive a fabby trial set of PanPastels from our lovely Berni from Your Creativity Store


Thanks for popping by

  1. Very opulent and such rich colours - those heart stamps come up trumps every time don't they (so versatile for many techniques).
