A BIG welcome to Midnight Madness Sketch! This is such a wonderful valentine's card, with the embossed heart and the ribbon and scrolls in the back I think that neat little bird crackle piece takes the cake. How sweet! Thanks so much for taking time to create using our sketch this week, hope to see more from you xox ~Jeni & MMSC DesignTeam
