Here's a close-up of the flowers and leaves stamped and cut with Clearly Besotted's Fancy Florals (now discontinued). I used foam tape for dimension and finished the card with a few bling. The patterned paper is from First Edition's Love Letter paper pad.

My second card is also inspired my Valentine's Day, but this one is quite the opposite - it's CAS and masculine. I know! It's unprecedented! The background paper is from Papermania's Linen Capsule Collection. I stamped the woodgrain panel with Lawn Fawn's Woodgrain Backdrop and VersaFine Toffee ink on light kraft cardstock. This piece is hangs a little over the card base, mounted on foam tape. The Scripty Love and Hearts are also dies by Lawn Fawn.
The Scripty Love is inlaid into the woodgrain panel. I gave the little hearts with several coats with the Red Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush Tip Pen and smothered them with Ranger Glossy Accent.
Challenges:
