Happy Valentine's Day (3)

This is an award-winning design from Nancy Riley. The only differences in mine are that hers said Happy Valentine's Day and had a fun brad on it where I have the zig zag strip of Lucky Limeade DSP, and I forgot to add a cute little Calypso Coral heart over the Wisteria Wonder heart. To view Nancy's blog, visit iSTAMP by Nancy Riley. Scroll down the page to read about the award Nancy won for this design.
