Happy Valentine's Day!


I have been hanging on to this laser-cut square doily from a card I received years ago, and decided this was the time to use it.  Keeping it the star of the show, I paired it with some scraps of paper left from my Simon February CardKit, using the sweet sentiment from the Just a Love Note set, and just added a peachy button and some white twine of my own.. 

Today is one of my favorite holidays; I've always been drawn to hearts and this is the day for them!  So I hope you'll indulge me for one final Valentine - this one to all of you, who so faithfully visit and leave me lovely comments on a regular basis.  I wish you flowers and chocolates, if that's your thing, and at the very least, the time to spend with someone you love, be it your hubby, your Mom, or your best friend.  Sending Hugs to you all!

Beautiful card Lin, and Happy Valentines day to you too! Thanks for all the cards you share with us! I love the inspiration and lovliness! And that is a wonderful heart cut out!! Don't you wish there was a die available to cut that?

So pretty , Lin! Love how you combined the geometric background with the lacy doily - it makes for a nice contrast!

I had a feeling there would be one more glorious heart here, Lin. And, it is a stunner. Great use of the laser heart - wonderful tag off the page.
