Happy Friday, everyone! And a love-filled Happy Valentine's Day to all my dear stamping friends out there! I've gotten several beautiful cards already! How fun! My card today is for my own special Valentine! I used the Just Add Ink sketch as well as the challenge to use red from Little Red Wagon:
I pulled out some older retired goodies and went to work:
I used the Perennial Postage dies to cut out my little postage stamp elements, backed them with some retired red DSP and stamped some Valentine-ish images and sentiments on each one! I think my favorite might be the chocolate-covered strawberry! Yum! I added the little numbers (rather crookedly, I admit) with a tiny little peg stamp called Simple Serif:
I backed it on a piece of Basic White, embossed with the Dotted Circles embossing folder and then put it on an Early Espresso card base. I forgot to take a picture of the inside, and it's already sealed in an envelope, so you'll have to just imagine!
Thanks for popping in today, I hope you have a wonderful day with those whom you love! Enjoy it and be blessed!

This card is so sweet, LeAnne! Especially love the pop of color from the chocolate covered strawberries (they are also yummy)! The Dotted Circles EF really pops under your focal images! Just love the older stamps being used, too! Love, love, love! Happy Valentine's Day to you & John!
Those swirly dots make the little retro stamps you made pop! Happy Valentine's Day!
Your Valentine undoubtedly loved your card, LeAnne - who can resist chocolate dipped strawberries?
