DSC#116 & MOJO 381 "You Plus Me-Be Mine"

Hi Stampers,
Are you ready for another Valentine's Day Card?  I really hope so, because this weeks card is another Valentine's Day Card.  The card this week is for both the DSC#116 DOstamper STARS Thursday Challenge and also for the Mojo #381 Contest.  I named my card "You Plus Me-Be Mine".  I really loved the color combo in the Home Sweet Home Challenge Photo below, and I found tons of ideas flowing in my head immediately as to what I would do to make this card.  I also really LOVED the layout of this week's Mojo#379 Sketch.  So....I put both these wonderful ideas and challenges together and thus this card was designed and put together.

For the base of the card I used the Early Espresso CS.  The decorative paper on the card was made with the Stacked With Love Paper Pack from the New Occasions Catalog for Sale-a-Bration.  The center circles were created with both Real Red CS and Crisp Cantaloupe CS using a combination of the 2-1/2" Large Circle Punch and also the Circles Collection Thinlits Dies. Both the envelope and it's liner were both made with the Envelope Punch Board.  The envelope liner was made with the Neutrals Backgrounds DSP. The final "tweak" was adding the Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon and a few Red Gems. I put the cardstock cutting sizes at the end of this post for you.  I hope you enjoy the card, I would love to hear your thoughts...God Bless!
