I decided to have a little fun with this one, when I saw these adorable little chicks from Stampingbella the first thing that jumped into my head was "I think they're doing sit ups at the gym, it's their New Years resolution".
I watercoloured the chicks using Daniel Smith watercolour dots. I thought I would try them out in the dot size before I invested a lot of money in the tubes, It's a great way to find out if you like them. I die cut the chicks, and also die cut as set in white fun foam to pop the up on the card.
I die cut the hearts from red cards stock and made them sparkle with a little wink of stella.
I would love to hear what you think 😏

Oh Christine your card brought a huge smile to my face. Such a fun idea on the heart theme, cute images, beautifully coloured and great sentiment with a lovely font x
How fun and clever to use your exercising chicks with a fun sentiment for a Valentine card. TFS Christine. Hugs..
Made me laugh to think of those chickens doing sit ups! They are so cute. And I think of them having to check their heart rate after exercising so putting the little hearts on them is perfect! Great sentiment along the idea of making a New Year's resolution to exercise. What a fun interpretation of the "heart" challenge!
So fun!! This is such a unique design for hearts. Love the adorable chicks with the sparkly hearts. xx
You always use such unusual images and love seeing them. Those chicks are just too darned cute and I laughed about them doing sit ups. The font of the sentiment is wonderful too. Fun design.
These chickens are so funny :-) I also see them at the gym ... I would also have to jump in with them. A great idea for a card

These chicks are so cute and such fun Christine and I love the way you have coloured them and popped them up on foam for dimension, and I love that sentiment too. x
