Friends and new release

I know I already posted a card today using this fun image from the new Cute As A Button release.  But, I wanted to pull it out and play with it again after seeing those pocket "cards"...Since they (in my way of thinking) are not actually cards, but scrap book pages, I wanted to try to replicate it and make a card similar...  So, I sat down and figured out what sizes to make the 9 squares and what to do with them.  I kept with the black, red and white color scheme (like my last card using this image).  I originally colored this image using a #2 pencil and a gel pen.  I then scanned it into my computer and saved it so I don't need to color it ever again, unless I want to make it another color. 

Have I mentioned I really do not like coloring?  LOL

The three sentiments are all from Create With TLC.  I added several gems, heart shaped gems even, and a bow.  Other than that, it was pretty easy to make!  I did go around all of the nine rectangles using a black ink pad.

Here is the measurements on how to make this card:
