With Love
by Lisa Elton
Love is in the air as we begin the countdown to Valentine's Day! There's no better way to celebrate than with hearts and flowers. Well, maybe some chocolate too!
The Nordic Crown Flower and delicate Scallop Pinpoint Hearts were my jumping off point today. I used deep rich red, petal pink and plaid with shades of wine, pink and gold to create my blooms. I chose a lovely gold for my stem and leaves to compliment the gold lines from plaid paper.
The flowers were cut three times, once from each paper so I could mix and match them to create the regal blooms. I adore the tiny dots on all of the leaves! A simple foiled sentiment was tucked into the arrangement.
A lovely vintage jade cardstock foiled with the Criss Cross Heart Plate was the perfect complimenting color for this design. I do love the look of this color combination and I hope you do too!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Lisa! You and Birgit are both making me want this Nordic Crown Flower die, and your colors are just so perfect for the lovely blooms! Your simple white heart outline and the foiled heart background really take this card up another level...beautifully done my friend!! Hugs. :0)
I do love it, too, Lisa! Beautiful colors, gorgeous blooms, and all the heart[s] a card maker needs for the perfect Valentine!
