Hi Everyone
I am a little earlier this evening. I got carried away last night crafting away and ended up posting very late!!! Sorry about that!!
Tonight's share is a valentine card .. .. although you wouldn't know it from the outside.
This used:
Image: Elusive Script Background
Sentiment: Woodware "FRCL128" Circular Greetings
Gold Embossing Powder
Ribbon and Cord from the stash box
Diamond Stickles
Rather a lot of photographs tonight but I just had to add a close up of the little label .. .. I lurve it!!! I went randomly around the edge of the label with a versamark ink pen and embossed it with gold powder .. .. I love how little bits of it stuck to the lettering too!! Doesn't take much to please me does it!!!
Some of you might want to sign off now!!! I understand if you do .. .. but I have a mission to complete that I should have done ages ago. It is to answer loads of questions passed to me by my lovely blog buddy Annmaree. I feel it is rude not to do these things if someone has been kind enough to think of you.

I am not going to pass it on to anyone (though I know I am supposed to) .. .. if you would like to have a go though take the questions and let me know you answered them .. .. then I can come and have a nosey at your answers.
I still have yet another mission to complete from my buddy Lesley .. .. I will save that one for another day as I think I have bored you for long enough now. LOL!!!

When I saw the title of your post I thought "well the heart will be easy to find on this one" so I was surprised when I saw the creation! I love the simplicity of this card, I have loads of those flowers and wondered what to do with them, thanks for the inspiration.

What a lovely Valentines Card, Jules. Your embossed tag makes it so special. I love doing this effect too but never thought to do it on something tiny like a tag. I've managed my first Valentines card today after being completely stumped for inspiration. It feels good to be industrious doesn't it.
I feel I lnow you so much better now, thanks for sharing all your loves.
Hugs Lisax
Such a beautiful and elegant card. You have so many different styles of card and I love them all.
I had to laugh about the egg conditioner bit. Would love to have seen the effect.

stunning card jules.i love the gold embossed script and gorgeous rose.very classy :D
great facts about you too, mmm stew and dumplings,yum :D

Hi Jules, this is one beautiful card and you've used just about my favourite script stamp. Can't read a word of it but somehow it's just such a pretty, dainty script and just perfect for your pretty, dainty rose, bow and label.
I'd love to visit one of the big stores in America too. I found out after we'd been that there are a couple of good ones in Las Vegas, :( and last time we went to Orlando I went armed with a few addresses of stores and my lovely Hubby patiently spent a whole afternoon driving round and the only one we could find changed to a furniture store several years before.

Hi Jules this is one classy card which says it all, I love it.
