This was a GREAT challenge. I picked and picked and picked and sure have lots of stuff saved. Today I realized why I usually take the IC sample. I got lost looking. Then I clicked on something and got an invitation to sign up for Pinterest and I did and then... I will let you use your imagination. Not getting much done today. So here is the inspiration I finally settled on. It was the pillow.
Oh that was after I couldn't find the hunk of lace for the picture I was really inspired by. I'm still cleaning, so I WILL find it.
It's just ran a piece of CS run through the Cuttlebug. The lace is glued over the center and then I took the cotton seam binding apart and made a bow. The picture is a bit darker than actual because I took it on the windowsill and - yup - it's snowing again. I like it.

Very pretty - prettier than the pillow! Yup, I have the same problem, so hard to stayed focused sometimes. Pinterest is a lot of fun, but kind of addictive. Stay warm.

Very pretty! The cuttlebug was my first crafting tool, and I'm still amazed at how wonderfully it still works! Thanks for finding some time to play along today!

WOW, you really put three beauties together!! That is one of my all time favorite embossing folders. I love the velvet and the lace too. Gorgeous Valentine!! You should see my craft room. Some how it becomes a fun challenge to see if I can find things. I try to get them back in the general direction, but sometimes my papers start piling pretty high. It's almost weird that I tend to be more creative in the clutter. I guess I don't have to worry about making a mess. LOL :>)

OMGoodness! You are a goner now! Pinterest is ADDICTING! I love your card. I love the grey (it is grey, right?) with the lace and the red ~ romantically, classically Valentine's Day
