Love is in the Air

I often wonder how card makers keep their challenges straight. That alone is a challenge for me! The title of my post represents A Dragonfly Journeys Theme Challenge #85.

Today I made this card for my friend who is letting me use her house for our card group on Thursday. It's just a little thank you. I do adore her and she IS very lovable! (I still think that word should be spelled loveable!)
 Just Us Girls Challenge #379 is dedicated to the word "dogs". My dog stamp set is called "Bella and Friends"and can be found in the current Stampin' Up Annual Catalog. The hot dog truck is from the Sale-A-Bration catalog and is free when you purchase $50 worth of SU products. #WWYS102 is using this stamp set for their weekly challenge. There are tacos, pancakes, ice cream cones, cupcakes and, of course, hot dogs! Bella is a "hot" dog! 
The colors I used were mainly Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red and Basic Black. The hearts came from the January 2017 Paper Pumpkin Kit, along with the "I Adore You" stamp. The inspiration for my red, brown, black and white came from this photo found on Challenge #42 Inspired by All the Little Things

Thanks for looking!
