LIM Valentine

OK,OK I know I said I'd only make one Valentine's Day card this year but this one just popped out of my head, courtesy of the sketch challenge at Less Is More and one of the cards created by  the guest designer over there this week, Jen.
I cut out a section of my card and spliced in some flocked acetate. Then I added red ribbon and a dash of fancy washi tape The sentiment if from Sweet Cake.
I think the whole thing adds up to much more than the sum of it's parts, if you know what I mean and that must be LIM. In a quandry now as I don't know which one to give him!

    WONDERFUL LIM card and I love your definition - it's more than the sum of its parts!! (Although each part is also spectacular on its own!!)

    Smashing card - two valentines? push the boat out and send him both - it'll confuse him!
