Valentine's Day

It's a very special Valentine's Day this year because it is my Grandson Luca's first time to celebrate it since he is just turning 7 months old.

I just had to make him a card of course and decided to play along with the challenge at Pretty Pink Posh while I was at it.
I used the card that Liz created as my inspiration.

The Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Duo 3 die was used as the tag focal point along with Pink Blush, Pink Peonie and Sparkling Clear PPP sequins.

I am also entering my card in the Paper Issues Take 5 challenge.

Cardstock: SU

PP: MME

Stamp: Mama Elephant
