Oh…I think I'm going to LOVE Stampin' Up!'s PS I Love You set in the Occasions Mini! I've been playing around with it for a couple Create with Connie and Mary Occasions projects and now did up this card real quick! Love that it has greetings in it, too! I followed the color scheme on Colour Q challenge #117 with Black, White and any other color! Obviously I chose Real Red!
And here is my card:
I decided to use the Real Red Patterns Designer Paper because Stampin' Up! currently has a special package called Love Patterns of 12 sheets of Real Red and Pretty in Pink Patterns for Valentine's on the CLEARANCE RACK for $1.99 (regularly $9.95)! What a BARGAIN! Head over to my ONLINE store to check out what else they just added, too!
The base of the card is Whisper White and I added a layer of Basic Black. I used another piece of Whisper White and ran it thru the Big Shot with the Houndstooth Impressions Folder. I cut four Scallop Heart Embosslits from Basic Black. Then I punched two of the Real Red Patterns with the Full Heart Punch. I stamped the hearts image from Stampin' Up!'s PS I Love You stamp set with Real Red and punched it with the Full Heart Punch. Next I punched a Real Red cardstock Full Heart and stamped Love You from the same stamp set inside with Basic Black. I added a flower White button from the Neutrals Button pack with White Bakers Twine tied inside. Oh, the Love You heart is popped up with Dimensionals. I really like how it turned out!

Love this card! But am totally bummed I missed that dsp for 1.99 when I did my clearance rack order. Oh well. I really like the houndstooth folder in white for the BG.
