Cards to Adore with Laurie Schmidlin

Good morning!  In keeping with this month's theme, I have created a couple of Love cards to share with you today!  The wonderful thing about love is that it can be celebrated all year long!  Weather it's for Valentine's Day, a Wedding Anniversary, or just because...cards celebrating love are always in style!  :-)
  GD Adore
I started with some yummy Love Nest papers and then added a cardstock frame around the Love Nest rub ons.

Because I love me some sparkle :-), I added some Stickles to the flowers!

In this photo, you can see the ruffle I created using some red Glitz Tulle and my sewing machine.

For the finishing touch, I added a cream bow with a red giant rhinestone in the center!
GD The Journey
On my next card, I created a vellum pocket to hold a removable note.

This little "love note" can also later be used as a bookmark!
