This was made for today's LSC. Talk about limited - only heart-shaped punches or dies, only embossing with a heart on it, only heart-shaped or red embellishments.
So, I started out by giving myself a limited canvas, and used a 6 1/2 by 3 1/4 inch card, which was a size I really enjoyed when it was in a challenge last summer, and haven't used since.
I cut the base from red Bazzill, and then a layer of light green, then white. I cut a vase in a similar shape to one we had when I was growing up, which I always liked. The flower is 6 hearts and a gem brad, the stem is Mizuhiki cord and and the leaves are 3 more hearts. I'd have added a little mini-tag with a greeting, but that wasn't allowed.
So carrying on from yesterday I am still in minimalist mode...TFL.
