The Flower Challenge #67 Reminder

There's still plenty of time to 'add a heart' to any of your floral cards for
this month's The Flower Challenge!

I found another way to add a heart, and color these wonderful 
Waffle Flower Tulips using my favorite greys...

This darling stitched heart was cut from a panel made using 
Pinkfresh Studio Essentials: Stitches cover plate
[The sentiment comes from that set I borrowed from Marcia a few weeks ago.]

Subtle heart, but sweet, right?  Who says hearts should be saved for 
Valentine's Day??

Hope to see your sweet heart in The Flower Challenge gallery!

I think I have that cover plate on a wish list at my favourite store, thanks for reminding me. Unfortunately I have already succumbed to some easter sales! Your card is beautiful I love the heart and your neutral tones. All that blue has sent you back to your comfort zone perhaps? xx
