The challenge is to use eyelets in our creation.
Thanks Kimme fro the challenge!
-The scrap cardstock was already cut so assembly went quicker and the scrap box got a little emptier.
-Behind the eyelets I placed clear packing tape and poured in glitter for just a touch of sparkle.
-I positioned the eyelets before punching and just made a pencil mark in the center as a punch guide.
-The flower and leaves are glued to the card.
-The panel sets up on foam squares.
-Paper piercing is done using the Stampin Up mat pack and a Making Memories piercer tool from JoannÂ’s. ItÂ’s much faster and more accurate than using that plastic canvas as a guideÂ…well worth the purchase for me!

VERY pretty! You did a great job mixing the stamp sets (Paint Prints has always been one of my favorites!) and LOVE the idea of putting the glitter behind the eyelets! This is going straight into my favorites!! TFS!
I've been hanging onto those cute heart brads the 'elf' dropped off--like the way you scattered them around--good idea and a great valentine card with the tiny flowers and piercing!
