I am a kind of over for Christmas/holiday cards so I decided to start ahead for Valentine’s Day! (at least it’s ahead for me, lol) I used this cute image, Cocoa’s Heart Digi and coordinated with the sentiment from Valentine’s Day Greetings Digi. The image was colored with Copic markers and the mat was sponged with ink to soften the edge. The card was designed with EP Holly Jolly Christmas DP and Dots & Stripes DP. To finish off, I embellished the pennants with buttons and the baker’s twine.

    All your shades of pink and red are terrific! I especially like how you added the dots in the "background" of the heart. I'll have to remember that! :)
