This is my card for CC776. Jeanne is our hostess and she chose Flirty Flamingo, Bermuda Bay and Poppy Parade for her color trio. Dessert Option this week is stenciling.
For my card I used elements from the April 2019 Stampin'-Up Paper Pumpkin kit. The floral image was in the kit already colored in flirty flamingo. The white corrugated paper and the designer paper were also part of the kit. I used basic gray (neutral) as a layering panel.
I stenciled some leaves in Bermuda bay ink using some life changing blender brushes from Picket Fence Studio. I love the softness of the ink using these brushes.
The "Be My Valentine" sentiment is a die from CottageCutz. I cut the words in poppy parade cardstock.
To finish off my card I added some flirty flamingo bakers twine. Hope you can join in with us this week.

So lovely, Mary! You combined all the elements into a beautiful Valentine's Day card! I especially love the little enamel dot in the center of your twine bow!

This is so pretty Mary. What a creative use of Paper Pumpkin. I have so many of those kits that aren't used. I'll have to start thinking "outside the box" (sorry for the bad pun!)

This is really lovely. I like that you made an alternate card from your MPP Kit from last year.
