Here's the 2nd card.I punched the Love You from another image in the scraps and popped it up with a foam dot.
I added a button & flower gem to the little tag. I love using these tiny tags. I got them at an office supply store in Clinton where I work. They came in a big bunch with strings on each one. I cut the string on this one to make it shorter and tied a knot in it. Supplies: Paper- vanilla cardstock, Madeline Mat Pad by K & Company. Ink - Ranger Distress Antique Linen. Acces. - Love Mail Creative Scraps, pink Adorn-it's, vintage button, flower gem by Hero Arts, tag, pom-pom trim, ribbon, paper roses. Tools - scalloped border punch by ek success, tiny attacher, scalloped oval punch by Marvy, paper distresser, sewing machine.

I bought a camellia plant this weekend. I saw some on the Martha show and the blooms where goregous, they looked like roses! I didn't realize the plant got so big, like a tree, I'll have to pick the perfect spot for that!
