Forever and Ever

33Forever+ever

 I like the look of A2 cards but  I also love tall, skinny cards like this one.  The Remember This Design Adhesives has several greetings  that are perfect for tall cards.  Here's one that would be great for just about any romantic day - including February 14.

The heart, from Memory Box, is embossed in Ballet Pink, then smooched with Taffy and Carrot.  A light application of Soft Pink Vivid! Dye Ink ties the colors together.  Silver Fog Designer Foils are applied to the Design Adhesives - and Sweet Orange Glitter adds the final touch.
