Sometimes in magazines you see articles on 'ten minute cards'. This card is more like a ten hour card, taking into account the time it took to get my ideas together and then to make them work!
It all started with a challenge at Red Carpet Studio - create a project inspired by the morning. I played with a few ideas then settled on the rooster and the alarm clock. But then I had this old song ' I want to wake up with you..' (Boris Gardiner) going round in my head and decided to make it into a Valentine's card.
I really do think this is a card to give to someone you are already in a relationship with - if you gave it to the handsome guy at the office, he might be quite alarmed!
The papers I used are all from a magazine freebie pack . The rooster was a magazine freebie stamp too and I paper pieced it with two papers. I cut the clock, hearts and tags on the Silhouette Cameo.

ReplyDeleteDefinitely a card to give to the person you're sharing your life with! I really like your design for this card, with the clock and the rooster and red and white color scheme!
ReplyDeleteI've read about ten minute cards, but i don't think I'm ever going to be able to create such a card, closer to an hour is a more realistic goal for me as for quick makes:)
Fabulous card!! Thanks so much for playing along at CCCB!!
ReplyDeleteHehehe this is cute!!! So happy you could share with us this week at Addicted to Stamps and More, we sure hope to see you back again soon :)
ReplyDeleteOMG you totally made me laugh out loud about it being a 10 hour card. I have several of those!! So I totally understand. But I LOVE THIS idea for a card. I just might have to lift/CASE this card from you using that sentiment and a clock. Love it!

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this clock with the rooster, Marina! I used to have roosters and they are certainly great alarm clocks (but too early for me!). I LOVE that sentiment that has been put on the little tag. Thanks so much for playing along at ATSM xx
