This card is for Mary's (MaryR917) Color Challenge (CC567) for today, which is to use SU Strawberry Slush, Mint Macaron, and Early Espresso colors for a card. The "Dessert" included in this challenge is to create "a valentine using these non-traditional colors".
I used a stamp image from the SU Valentine Defined Stamp Set, the two flamingos, on my card. I suspect you're aware of the very synchronized flamingo mating dance. Well, thinking about that brought to mind my sentiment, Synchronized Love, which I created. Get it? TFL!!! Oh, one more thing, I used clear embossing powder to emboss a group of hearts down the right side of the card.

Beautifully designed card with today's colors. Love hoe the flamingos' necks make a heart. The surrounding details of die cuts flowers. pretty panel corners and embossed hearts all add greatly to your design.

The sponging on your large flower softens it so nicely and blends with the center and leaves! I like the little string of hearts on the bottom of your main panel and then repeated to the right. Sweet looking Valentine~
