French Valentines...

I am sure that French Foliage is not the first stamp set you think of for creating Valentine cards. I was looking through some old SU catalogs/magazines (I receive the magazines by being a consultant), and saw the inspiration card below. The ink spots on the inspiration card reminded me of a stamp in the French Foliage set...then I thought that the small script and Paris postmark stamps out of the set would also look good in creating my card version. I started with the new DSP, More Amore, and then used the Square Lattice embossing folder on my flowers from the Blossom Punch. The square behind the flower measures 2 1/2" and the overall card is 4"x5 1/2". 

I have will have projects to share over the next couple of days along with a link to a great video showing one of the projects.
