For this week's sketch challenge. I'd been given a rose printed box of valentine chocolates. Can you see the paper from that box? There's a scrap in front that didn't get used. I pulled an experiment from the fails file that had embossing paste, mixed with who-knows-which re-inker, and a brad that came very close to matching the sentiment.

I like how you used that pretty recycled paper.....this really is very classy looking with the swirls die cuts. I like the added circles. Great card. tfs

Hey, wish the rain was champagne around here. We'd be having a little more fun down here in the Houston area!! I'd be putting my bottles out for sure.

This is such a great way to recycle the chocolate box and it looks so good against that background. This was a great challenge to use up scraps too but I guess it doesn't make a dent in the box full. Lovely card.
Brenda, this is really cool!!! When I first looked at the card I was curious what kind of paper you used for the banners. So cool that you recycled a valentine! Fabulous color combo!
