Thank you Valentine!

I used Gypsy Wanderings for the card base I welded it together with my Gypsy Card size 5X5
Paper from Target
Circle Punch
Heart From Sizzix covered with glossy accents and snow glitter (new Technique)
I handmade the two stick pins using glossy accents and beads
Ek Success Photo Label Punch
Liquid Pearls
Thank you Stamp from Docerela Creations
Tim Holtz Distressed ink Walnut Stain
Bling gems
Martha Stewart Twine Distressed

Entering into:
