  3. I love the paper and the trims you used. The paper is so delicate and that white trim makes that heart so feminine. The three have a nice rustic look to them.

  9. These have a folk art feel to me Bonnie and love the texture with the white music and then the woodgrain, and the pretty brown/pink patterned hearts in a vertical line and then one larger one on the second which both work beautifully. I love the die cut sentiment on each too. x

  13. The most perfect of all patterned papers, and I love the added 'linen-like' texture you've added to your kraft paper, Bonnie!!

  15. Love the inspiration photo and those darling hearts which you have replicated in your two cards beautifully! Love the music embossing folder you used on your first card, and the embossed frame. Your hearts so are so sweet with the pearl on them. Such a beautiful card for sure. Your second card is my favorite, love the embossed background and that heart is soooo sweet with that ribbon and "love" script sentiment. Just really love this one and think it is stunning. Hugs, Brenda

  31. What cute cards. Craft paper is rarely used for Valentine's Day cards, but your creations look great in this version. I especially like the heart on the second card.
