    Hi Lucy. Your sweet Valentine card is so darling! Love the traditional red and white! Your sweet little red pearl bling across the bottom is so cute. Love your Darla. I love the idea of just coloring the red roses and leaving the rest more like a colorized portrait of old. Your sweet little roses are the perfect dimensional embellishment for this card! Thanks for sharing your card with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
