Hello everyone!! It's Wednesday and time for another Color Throwdown Challenge and it's my turn to host the challenge!! When I saw this picture on Pinterest my jaw dropped to the floor!! Don't ya just love that bed!!!. I think it would look fabulous in my bedroom but I'm not sure my sweet hubby would agree...LOL!!

My Minds Eye Lost and Found and the corrugated cardboard heart with the stick pin, ball fringe, lace, sewing, and distrssing finish it off.

Such a sweetheart of a card! Love the image and the pin you used is perfect for Valentine's Day! Great card and I love the bed!
Adorable, love that sweet stamp and the fringe paired with the lace is wonderful!
What a wonderful card and such a sweet image, I have never seen one like that. Love how you did the heart with the pin, you are so creative with that type of stuff. Well, off to build my Arc, up to 4" of rain so far, but I am not complaining.
aww look how adorable...I love it...that image is just so adorable...
This is so cute Joan. Love the heart and those pom poms.
All that distressing just makes this so pretty! Love the little heart and of course those wonderful pom poms and lace. Gorgeous - and, oh yes, I do love that bed too! LOL!

I just love your sweet valentine, Joan! Thank you for the great challenge! That picture and those colors are fabulous:)
I just love that sweet vintage image Joan! wonderful coloring, lace and cardboard heart!
Hiya Joan! I havent been able to drop in and visit you for absolutely ages, first because I needed to do some serious resting so I had a break from crafting, and then I had a lot of problems leaving comments, but that is all solved now, and I logged on especially to sit down and look at your blog over lunch.....well there were a lot of posts to catch up on since I last came by, lol.
I can honestly say it's been a joy looking at your work today, especially all the Technique Challenge cards, they always inspire me. My mojo has gone on holiday so i really need some ideas, so thanks for the inspiration.
I hope you finally got your tree and decorations down, if you had left it any longer it would have been better to leave them up ready for next christmas, he hee. We had a quiet time over the festive period but it was still fun. I'm just starting to get back into blogging and crafting again but at a slower pace.
Have a good day, oh and by the way yesterday's Moxie card you showed is just about perfect! cant leave comments on every post or I'll be here all week, lol. CoB
Such a beautiful vintage image, Joan. I love how you coloured her. She looks like a picture from a vintage story book:)
As Sasha mentioned, I also thought this image was from a vintage book! Love the crimped heart and pompom details...a beautiful card! Loved the colors and yes, I would love to have that bed as well! :-)
