I have been really pushing myself to incorporate graphic design with paper crafts. My main inspiration this time is Michelangelo's David. Oh how proud my art history teacher must be :) I designed almost all of this card in Adobe Illustrator. I posterized the image and placed David looking at the sentiment which is in a classic Roman font. David is holding a perfectly placed 3D rose in his hand. I have a bin of these tiny, beautiful roses in my craft room and knew they would be perfect to make this card have the wow factor it needed.
This card is so unique from most Valentine's I see in the crafting community I had to enter it into a number of contests.
