Sensational Saturday with Sugar Creek Hollow Untraditional Valentine

Welcome to another Sensational Saturday with Sugar Creek Hollow.  This week's challenge is to make a non-traditional Valentine!  Whatever this means to you.  For me it meant using colors you wouldn't normally see on a Valentine. 
The stamps that I've used are the Ladies "Frock" Together from the Springtime in Paris collection and the flowers from the February Flower label.  (yes, they're violets but this is a non-traditional card so mine are orange!) 

We'd love for you to join in our Non-traditional Valentine challenge.  You don't have to use a SCH image but if you do you get an extra chance to win the prize.  To play along just visit the SCH Weekly Challenge Blog!

  Here's the inside of my card.
The sentiment was printed on my computer.


Card makings:
Images: Sugar Creek Hollow
Spellbinders:  Nested hearts, fancy tag, antiquities
Oval punch
Copic markers
lace
fabric flowers
brad
spray glitter
Martha Stewart border punch
Cuttlebug embossing folder

Absolutely gorgeous! The burgundy and yellow are so striking together. I love that you used the flowers from the Vintage Floral Label. Very subtle but a lovely addition.

What a beautiful card....I love all the paper piecing and the colors that you used and your inside is as beautiful as the outside. I really appreciate all the support and encouragement that you have given me as I play along at SCH.

This just blows me away with all the gorgeous details - outside and INSIDE too! First the paper for the frock paper piecing is incredible - pretty and perfect for the dress. And your using the violet image flowers as embellishments is a great touch. So many details I could write tombs about this fantastic card!
Hugs,
Sharon
