 Hi Everybody, I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day and ate much chocolate in my honor! Here we woke up to a snowstorm that lasted several hours.

I used the Bella Rose paper from Stampin’ Up! along with Chocolate Chip cardstock (How can brown be a favorite color?) The Bella Rose paper has always seemed really old fashioned to me — sort of something your grandmother might have liked or used as wallpaper. Kinda cool, huh? The two techniques I used were the Miss Scarlett flower made with the scallop circle punch and a technique I call “ribbon tufting” for the chocolate chip 1/4″ grosgrain ribbon.
