First I would like to thank Loll for a wonderful sketch, however I could not so those squares! lol I messed up a ton of paper and ink! I really tired, you said it was simple but I couldn't get to come out right. So as they say there's more than one way to skin a cat! And no I don't condone that! lol
I took my distress inks directly to the paper~I used fired brick, spun sugar and antique linen. Then I laid the heart Spellbinder over the inked paper and cut out! I stamped the rose image and clear heat embossed, then I VersaMarked the whole heart and emboss again. I stamped and heat embossed the other two senitments. I mounted on cream and brown. Added the gingham ribbon because there was too much space in that corner. Not a simple card~took alot of time~but it was a learning experience! lol Thanks to all the designers for their wonderful samples. I will try those squares another day! TFL

It took me a couple of tries, too. These simple designs can take more time than you think. The final result is beautiful and now you have another Valentine for your stash.
