Mashed up Valentine



Happy Thursday everyone...just one more day till the weekend!  Why is it always so hard to get back to a full 5-day week after the holidays?? 
Today I have a little Valentine's ensemble I created for this week's Friday Mash-up challenge.  Here is the sketch:


I decided to "mash it up" and do the sketch using hearts as one of my elements.  Here is what I came up with:

Valentine's ensemble for FM91 featuring the Hearts A-flutter stamp set and More Amore DSP.

Close up of card...sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes

Inside view of card with sentiment from You Are Loved

Treat holder made using the Petite Pocket die, More Amore DSP with sentiment from Itty Bitty Banners

So I got a little carried away with the hearts!  I just couldn't stop adding them LOL...I used pretty much every heart die and punch I own on this project.  I even used the heart-patterned Adorning Accents TIEF to add texture.  I did manage to stay pretty much true to the sketch, though it was tempting to add a few extra embellishments!  There isn't a stitch of ribbon or bling anywhere on the card!!  I remedied that when I designed the treat holder, using some of the gorgeous SAB ribbon to tie the box closed.  Thanks for stopping by...have a great day!
