A Lawn Fawn Valentine

I finally picked up a set of Lawn Fawn stamps, and I love them!  They arrived just in time for me to play in the current Lawnscaping Challenge.  They're asking everyone to use this fantastic inspiration photo which is just perfect for Valentine's Day.
 


 And if that isn't enough inspiration, the DT samples are fantastic!  I actually started working on my cards before I saw the samples, and I was surprised to discover that Christy and I were using almost identical layouts!  I guess what they say is true--great minds really do think alike.  LOL. I liked it so much, I made a few different versions. 
 

I made the hearts by covering the adhesive side of a sticker with ultrafine red glitter.  The hearts are so much sparklier in real life.  That's probably why the sweet little raccoon has run off with it--You know how they like shiny things! Here are a few close-ups.   



I also decided to make a few cards featuring  the fox.  This card is for my grandmother.  In retrospect, I wish the sentiment read "Happy Valentine's Day to a Foxy Lady,"  (maybe it's the crooked handwriting that's actually bothering me) but I guess it's pretty cute all the same. 


Oh, and in case you were wondering--Lawn Fawn is equally adorable in pink! 


I'd like to enter these cards into the following challenges:
Simon Says Stamp--"love is in the air"
Celebrate the Occasion--"Happy Valentine's Day" (must use a heart)
Papertake Weekly--"Black, Red, and White all over"

Thanks for looking!  Have a great day!
