Lovely colors, Mary. I decided to go with rather "modern" style for my non-traditional valentine. I do not want to be considered for a "guest designer" position. A while back, I was guest designer for a month and I enjoyed it....BUT I feel others should have the opportunity. Thanks.
Here's my card for today's challenge. Thanks for stretching my comfort zone Mary.

I was a little hesitant about this color combo until I remembered that those colors were all in my beloved Everyday Enchantment paper that I am still hoarding from last year. So, I took a trip down memory lane with the Take it to Heart bird and that lovely patterned paper. (It was a really fun trip - thanks for a great challenge!)
For today's color challenge- I used Stampa Rosa's Pucker Up- and my scalloped oval die for a frame- and dry embossed my background with some green patterened dp underneath. Here's Lemon Mousies
