A romantic week!
Hi everyone, it’s Lisa here, with my take on our monthly theme:

Since Sunday is Valentine’s Day, I decided to focus on the romantic side of flowers. Nothing says romance quite like a big bouquet, or even a single rose, right? And the smell…ahhhhh, the smell…
I’ve got lots of lovely floral ideas to share with you, starting with a card inspired by hydrangeas. I keep seeing them everywhere — from pink ones, to blue ones, to purple ones, and even creamy white ones like the one in the photo:

Now for our 100 Days of Ideas, I wanted to share these wonderfully romantic table place cards by Sally – they’re so pretty! I can just imagine using these for a dinner party, along with candles and a scrumptious chocolate dessert, can’t you?

Oh my goodness I think I spied another stamp set I MUST have. Wonderful cards and place cards. I envy all your talent. I know, Hero Arts stamps make it so easy, but you do have so much talent and it’s an inspiration to us all.

Lisa,your Hydrangea card is beautiful. the soft colors give it such a sweet feel to it….this was one of the first stamps I bought from the 2010 Hero Arts Collection.
Sally’s place cards look elegant .it would really be nice to have friends in and have these pretty cards by their place.
I’m so glad you’re the hostess this week.
