Valentine Defined Sunset Birds

I just had to post one more card using the Valentine Defined stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog! This one uses both the flamingos and flower images. I stamped both images using Basic Black, and then using the masking technique and sponges, created the "sunset from the edge of the lake" landscape. The unique card design was "borrowed" from a beautiful Christmas card created by fellow SU demonstrator Val Wiig. The base card is cut 6-1/2" x 5-1/2" and folded in half, with the rest of the layers extending over the fold on the top.
