Country Valentine

This Country Valentine started with a kraft card folded vertically. Cut out Memory Box's Precious Heart Box once from red card stock and again from white card stock. Use a 1/16 circle hand punch to create a boarder around the red heart as shown. Then adhere it to the scalloped white heart. Cut out the Pearl Lace Boarder also from Memory Box out of white card stock. Mount on kraft card and stamp "Happy Valentine's" in Memento's Lady Bug Red. Knot a piece of red and white gingham ribbon over top of the boarder and mount the die cut heart with foam tape.
