No Man........

Today's Card.....
Update- I was lucky enough to get a Top Pick for this card at 
Stamplorations sketch and theme challenge-Thrilled...Thank you so very much x
I used a flourish stencil and black embossing paste.
Once this was dry I popped on glue and Gold Mica Flakes.
The red hearts have been stamped, fussy cut and glossy accents added to them.
I popped them onto foam.
I stamped the sentiment, which I absolutely love....
It came in the post this week and if you are lucky then I think it's the perfect sentiment x
This is not a good photo but wanted to show the glossy effect on the hearts.
The card is CAS with texture.

Challenges that inspired my card......
Lots of texture with the embossing paste, the gold flakes, the hearts and the glossy accents.
Stamplorations - Sketch and 3 of something
I combined the sketch and the three of something...the hearts
