Joanne/jojot challenged the Stampin B's this week to an Old/New challenge-use an old favorite along with something brand spankin' new.
My old is the textile embossing folder and my new item is the Cuttlebug Embossing Plus-embossed tags. Love that new item. I've already used one of the tags but NOT this one. So, I'm safe.
I first made my card in red, black, and white..which I usually do with Valentines but this color was calling out to me and I wanted something different so I did this one in Tempting Turquoise ink.
We would love for you to join the Stampin B's Design Team this week.

So very, very pretty, Benzi!! A beautiful and unique color combo for a Valentine. I love it! Super choices for the old/new StampinB challenge. I really like your "new" tag. Oh, and I have that same Miss Elizabeth's DP pack! I need to pull it out again sometime soon. Beautifully done!!

Girl, that dp would be calling me to if I just happen to walk by in the store. It's beautiful. The petals are a great match with your heart. Lots of great textures and colors going on her, Benzi.

Benzi, you really must come up with your own original ideas. I know you want to use my gallery for inspiration on all your cards, but it's time to branch out. LOL!
The truth is I am jealous as I love your card. I still love the textile ef, you know I love the dp, and your sparkly cord and beautiful brad top it off. Great new tag you have there too. Love the pop of turquois. You're getting there. Just quit coming to my gallery and use your own creativity!!
Hugz anyway!!
