My contribution is this Valentine's Day Card.  On Whisper White cardstock with Cherry Cobbler  I stamped the floral design from the Fresh Vintage stamp set.  I stamped all around to make my own background pattern for the card.

I used two sizes of the labels from the new Framelits dies, from the Occasions Mini Catalog.  One is cut from Cherry Cobbler, the other is cut from Whisper White and stamped with the the floral design from the new Apothecary Art stamp set, also in the Occasions Mini.  Using Watercolor Pencils and my Aqua Painter, I "painted" the leaves and roses. 

Using dimensionals, I layered the framelits. I pieced the banner in Cherry Cobbler and using the Teeny Tiny Wishes set, stamped the sentiment on Whisper White, punched with the Word Window. 

The finishing touch was to highlight the roses with Dazzling Details.  Love is in the air!

Now hop along for more inspiring ideas from Emily Steggell at Em's Creations
