I did this card set for Papertrey Ink's 5th Anniversary Day 7 challenge...to use hearts on your project. As you will see on all 4 cards...they all have hearts in some shape or form!! I also used the sketches from the previous day's PTI post, which I was unable to get to at that time. Here is the first card:

Instructions: Make card from vintage cream cardstock. Cut grey doily paper slightly smaller, and adhere to the card front. Layer a heart doily to the right side. Cut a banner edge to a block of love paper, and adhere to the middle. Fussy cut a banner, and adhere it to the upper left corner. Zig-zag stitch along the fussy cut banner, and the right side of the love paper block. Stamp the sentiment across the top of the hearts. Diecut the circle & heart from vintage cream cardstock and pink felt. Stamp the inside of the circle, adhere the felt to the center and then adhere in place of the "O" in LOVE. Thread three buttons with twine, and adhere below the stamped sentiment. Accent with pearls to finish.
