Valentine's Day Scrap Challenge

Nichole Heady of Papertrey Ink issued a challege to use your scraps! You can see the challenge here. Now scraps is something I have plenty of... especially V-Day scraps as I have spent the last day and a half making V-Day cards (I will have them up sometime this week). For this challenge I used all Papertrey products.

The border was created using PTIs Simple Valentine stamped with Fresh Snow on Kraft. I made the panel by weaving left over strips of patterned paper from Simple Valentine. I attached it to a scrap cardstock base and glued the whole thing down. Red grosgrain is wrapped around the bottom. The cute little scalloped circle was a left over from some Valentines using Tiny Treats: Valentine. The dino is colored with copics. The sentiment on the bottom of the card is from Simple Valentine.
