Romance

It starts with a kiss....

If you are a follower of my blog, then you know I posted earlier that I changed my blog background after Christmas to one of romance to celebrate my wedding anniversary, daughter's wedding and Valentine's Day. So no surprise that you'd find this romantic card here today.

Gecko Galz Valentine image (Love is In the Air collage sheet)
Geckog Galz digital background paper (Blue Willow digital paper pack)
silver glimmer cardstock mat
white card
silver doily (Wilton)
filmy or satin ribbon to coordinate
embellishments (Maya Road metal roses and Stampin' Up metal bling snowflake in center of bow)

Directions:
crop and print image from collage sheet and paper from digital paper pack
cut silver glimmer mat
layer items
wrap ribbon around layers, make and adhere bow
adhere to white card
add embellishments
