HQCB Love Theme #3 Project

 Welcome to the first posting at Becca's Heart Quest for Love and Country Creativity. This is where I'll share my owner inspiration projects at my challenge blogs--Heart's Quest and FarmQuest. For this first post, I will share the 'love for a male' theme for HQCB's Love Theme #3. It is the current challenge running from May 14 to May 27, 2022.

There are 2 requirements:

*use the word 'love' (verb tense form or language equivalents are okay)

AND

*use an image of a male (boy/man; can be photo, stamp, digital image, sketch)

There are many acceptable formats, so more than cards can be done. 

My card is a flat mid-blue tone card that uses clipart to show a man with a young child on his lap. I've used the phrase 'with love' to get the other requirement onto the card.



The background was made using 4 ink colors applied with a sponge with strokes and some zig-zag smooshes. Stamping, my own homemade stencils for the heart and oval, changed the color of the glitter heart to give it dark blue hue, added color to brighten the man and boy and then some layering plus wrapping the cording were steps to make this card.

    The background paper you created is beautiful! Placing that fabulous sentiment on the diagonal across the corner is brilliant. So glad you could play along with the Cardz 4 Guyz challenge. Hope to see you in the gallery again, soon! X Sue
