For someone who doesn't do Valentine's cards, I have a good supply of heart punches.
a) they are very useful in punch art
b) I used to mind my best friend's little daughter. This particular punch brought back memories of her when she was too small to punch it properly herself (it's not a lever one), and if the family were having dinner with us, she'd get everyone to punch her a few hearts. Often I'd find them in her skirt pocket the next day. She was so pleased when I got a lever punch she could work herself, and then when she got a bit stronger she could use this one too. And she loved the CAD. Well of course - it's pink. But I could hear her dad speaking when she called it "that dangerous looking tool".
The limitations were colours - shades of red and pink, black, white and kraft. Limited embellishments, suitable for mass production.
I think, with a cheerful young helper, it would be easy to mass produce this. The slave labour would do the embossing and punching, so all I'd have to do is the trimming and sticking the gems on, and threading the tags .
Black base. Pink layer. White embossed with Floral Fantasy.
3 little tags, 4 hearts (one is layed over a heart on the embossing folder), some pink embroidery cotton and 4 gems.

I like the simplicity of this. Love those rhinestones.
