Design Inspiration:

from DT Diane A= 

[Theme #23 requirements: heart on the die-cut and "I love you" sentiment AND pink and white flowers combined with the gorgeous die-cuts hint of romance]

 Diane says the white layer above the pale pink base is flocked vellum!!! Isn't that dreamy?!!!!

and

DT member Willa Jean=

[Theme #23 requirements: multiple hearts and 'love' art installment AND combination of journaling, tag cluster, heart shape border and lots of red hints of happy life/couple...they love 'love'!]

Willa Jean and her husband had several trips in 2022 and she agreed that she was seeing 'love' with her love! Sweet!

and

from HQCB owner Becca S=

[Theme #23 requirements: 7 heart shapes and "I love you" sentiment AND colors, gold foil lips, XOXO for hugs and kisses hint of romance]

This was a great stash raid of treasures to layer and cluster together! My hubby is not a gushy romantic guy...a bit macho...so expressions of love are difficult for him such as cards, flowers, chocolate. His love language is food. Any time he buys me candy or soda or a donut without asking him too, it's a reminder to me that he thought of me while he was at the store or at the gas station! :) 

He will probably roll his eyes at this overly romantic display card but he realizes it's my love language to do these creative acts of expression, communicating through my paper-crafting!
