Elegant and Slightly Vintage Valentine

Hello friends~  I found a bit of time to play with some new dies from The Greetery and made this sweet little card.  It has a very elegant and slightly vintage look to it.

 

I fell in love with the Coquette Hearts Embossing Folder and coordinating Filigree Hearts die from the recent release over at The Greetery.  The embossing is so crisp and dimensional on these hearts and the best thing is, you can emboss an entire panel of hearts and then cut them out all at once using the coordinating Whole Hearted Die.

 

I lightly rubbed over the embossed Kraft cardstock with DOX ink and added the Filigree Heart border, cut out of gold cardstock.  You can also just barely see that I embossed the center of the background, which is mentioned below.

 

The pretty background is a retired die set from Spellbinders called Filigree Marquis.  The beautiful flowy bow is called Regency Bow #1, and that is also from my recent visit to The Greetery.  The flower is from Concord & 9th.  
 

I'll be adding this card to the following challenges:

Just Us Girls ~ Word Week:  Valentine 

 Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes

 Cut It Up Challenge ~ This Makes Me Happy (vintage style, working with dies, flowers.... all these things make me happy.  ;0))

Thanks for stopping by!
