Loving the HQCB Love Theme #8 Bonus Reminder Card

 Welcome to my personal blog to feature inspiration projects made for Heart's Quest and FarmQuest challenge blogs owned by me. Yes. HQCB started in late February this year and FQCB began one month later. 

HQCB's Love Theme #8 requires the word 'love' (a verb tense or another language equivalent) PLUS at least 1 animal (or animal print design) image. 

Some examples for each would be: beloved, I love you, Mi amore, charity, agape, We're loving ....

and

paw prints, claw marks, zebra stripes/skin, tiger stripes/skin, and any non-human animal you'd like

Competition started October 14 and ends October 27, 2022. 

For the main launch post I used a zebra stripe patterned heart stamp. For the reminder post, I've featured some very old Sunday School/VBS children and pets stickers along with some plastic die-cut animals for a toddler's birthday card=

Some design and vendor notes:

1. top folded kraft cardstock for the base

2. green print background cardstock is from an old KI Memories/Hampton Art pad

3. yellow and white with a touch of pink print cardstock is My Mind's Eye

4. the 3 rectangle patterned cardstock strips are from an old album kit by Illustrated Faith

5. the gold text sticker with love, and the clear text sticker with love are both Creative Devotion products

6. the rabbit and squirrel plastic die-cuts shown on the left are by Craft Consortium

Lots of autumn seasonal elements with cute children and animals/pets!!

AND

*an animal image or animal print design

<3  **  <3  **  <3

My inspiration card goes with a zebra print that is part of a stamp=

I met the requirements with the sentiment that is a combination of a stamp and then handwritten sentence:

"Wild Thing--I think I love you!"

and with the zebra design print heart surrounding the small central heart stamp (Sum More Fun)

{NBUS: stamps purchased 2-3 years ago but this was the very first project to use the zebra heart stamp and "Wild Thing <3" stamp}
