Congratulations to Featured Stamper FS838, Marlease D - aka Lease! I quickly pinned several dozen of her creations old & new for further study.
I eventually selected Valentines 07 by Lease at Splitcoaststampers to case for the Challenge because (yet again) it offered a chance to use Magic Mesh - and for dessert I dug out The Tearing Edge [I always remember JanTink and her hilarious Soap Opera by that name].
I kept the basic design, using different sentiment and heart stamps and added texture rather than speckles to the (stitched edge) square. I used a flatter bow shape because all my heart shapes were too bulky.

Wonderful CASE. Love that you used two hearts on this -- so appropriate with your inside sentiment. And, yes, you really are rockin' the mesh. I'm echoing Ardyth right now -- fun mix of elements and textures. Fab card!
