Pretty simple and straighforward, following the design. I knew this would be a valentine for my granddaughter, who is almost 10, so I didn't want to get too sophisticated, nor too childish.I was happy finding a stamp for the background that would go well with the dp, and after trying it with various embossing powders, I decided that stamping it with the Versmark and just heat setting it to work as a "watermark" looked the best. The valentine verse will go on the inside.

Thanks so much, everyone!
Since scanning this last night, I added the final touch of Star Dust Stickles as accents on various parts of the card. I have found that a little glitter brings my cards from being "plain" to "almost store bought", and my DGD is a girly-girl and a sucker for glitter!
