The things that I changed:
Theme
No ribbon
plain squares to scalloped squares
Added pearls
Change dp
I'm still in need of Valentine Cards. I dream of red and white and little hearts dancing in my head!!!! LOL!
I love this rose dp.....have used it before. I used Gina K stamps for image and sentiment. For image, I stamped in Whispers black on white dp and colored with colored pencils. Cut out using scalloped nesties and placed pearls on the right side. For the sentiment, I stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with white ep and placed two pearls. I mounted onto white cs and cut end with decorative scalloped scissors.
That's about it. Oh, I pop dotted the image to give it dimension.
Ok, now, that's about it.....
What do you think?

Nice changes...especially to RED (LOL). I love the scallops and the pearls, and this really reminds me of DH and me...after 45 years we still hold hands. Lovely romantic card!
