TwilightTuesday TTIC#37, A Little Romance!

Welcome to another installment of Twilight Tuesday Inspiration challenge!!!
This week is TTIC#37 and it comes from the incredible, talented, sweet Donna!!
This week is all about Romance!
Here is the challenge in her words....
"People who know me know that I am a romantic at heart and one of the things I am constantly drawn to is Edward's and Bella's unfailing, undeniable, intense and passionate love they have for each other....


To many of us it's what draws us back to reading the books over and over again....My husband (whom I love with all my heart) is NOT a romantic in anyway, shape or form. And although I knew this when I married him I sometimes find myself craving for a little bit of romance....


So apart from actually going out to find it, I turn to my bookshelf instead! One of the books I pull out when I need a romantic hit is Eclipse...


When Edward finally gets to give Bella his "Hand me down" and when he finally gets her to agree to marry him....along with a few other things!





I took a deep breath."Isabells Swan?" He looked up at me through his impossibly long lashes, his golden eyes soft but, somehow, still scorching. " I promise to love you forever- every single day of forever. Will you marry me?"There were many things I wanted to say, some of them not nice at all, and others more discustingly gooey and romantic than he probably dreamed I was capable of. Rather than embarrass myself with either, I whispered, "Yes.""Thank you," he said simply. He took my left hand and kissed each of my finger tips before he kissed the ring that was now mine."





Creative Challenge:Do you have a favourite Edward and Bella, Jacob and Bella or even a Alice and Jasper romantic moment? Create something that celebrate's their love or how about creating something for that special person who you love.





Comment Challenge:Tell us about your most favourite romantic moment... be it in the books or real life!

Here is my sample, I wanted to use romantic colors and papers. I used the sets from Artful INKAbles again too!


Stamps Used: Into the moonlight, Fictionally yours0Artful INKables
Papers Used: Wisteria BasicGrey, ripe avocado, true black-PTI
Ink Used: versafine black onyx, river rock SU
