February Challenge for Creative Embellishments

I made a large tag for the February Challenge and of course it's Valentine's themed.  I used a large tag (5.5 x 10") from Creative Embellishments and an older Graphic 45 collection, Mon Amour, for this romantic project.

The first thing I did was cover the tag with paper and then I stenciled on some hearts with the Heart Bokeh Stencil. 

On the right side I used a CE chipboard piece that I heat embossed with Stampendous Shabby White. Then I wove a strip of design paper through the hearts.  On the left side I used two different piecs of chipboard that I heat embossed and cut each piece in two so that they would layer nicely under the flowers. 

 

The solid heart is is a wood veneer piece that I inked with pink ink and then painted with white gesso.  The cut-out heart is also heat embossed.
