Sentimentally Yours!

The second Heart2Heart challenge for August was to make the sentiment the focus of your project.  I had done similar cards like this using the October Stamp of the Month using the Ruby Accessory pack and wanted to recreate them using paper flowers from Art Philosophy instead of the felt flowers and some kind of natural looking twine instead of the baker's twine that came in the accessory pack.  The flowers are beautiful and love the sparkle in the baker's twine, but to make the cards in bulk you'd have to buy a lot of accessory packs.  I did put one of the pretty sparkle buttons from the accessory pack in the center of my flowers and I used red glitter gems as well.  This stamp set is so much more versatile than it appears at first glance.  Looking forward to making some fall-ish cards with the other stamp in the set.

I am totally stealing the design of this card. You turned a so-so stamp set into a "Must Have" stamp set with these cards! (You have a way of doing that!)
