Here's the Valentine I have enjoyed bringing to my stamping ladies the most this valentine season! It is just so vintage-y and valentine-y at the same time, I LOVE IT! I used the Framed Tulips Textured Impressions Folder, then sponged Crumb Cake ink on them to make the tulips really "pop"! I stamped the Occasions Mini "Be My Valentine" single stamp (still available until April 30th, so you can get it for next year if you don't already have it!) three times, the first two times in Cherry Cobbler, then once in Staz-on Black. One of the Cherry Cobbler hearts I cut out just around the heart, the second Cherry Cobbler one I punched a few times with the "Heart to Heart" punch to have some vintage-y hearts to sprinkle around my card, and the Staz-on Black one I cut out just the "BE MY VALENTINE" to pop up over the heart with dimensionals. I cut a Cherry Cobbler tag from the "Two Tags Die", then layered a piece of crumpled, Crumb Cake distressed "First Edition" Designer Paper over it. I added a slightly ruffled Early Espresso 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain ribbon piece over the First Edition, achieving the ruffled effect by attaching the ribbon to a piece of Sticky Strip and using a mini glue-dot to secure the single ruffle. The finishing touches were provided by "Victoria" Crochet Trim, a "Vintage Trinkets" safety pin, and "Basic Jewels Pearls"!

That's all I have time for today! My sweet hubby gave me advanced warning he is taking me out to eat tonight and I have lots to accomplish today before I can go!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! Day!
