FS471 - Happy Valentine's Day

This week's Splitcoaststampers Featured Stamper is Michele G. This is the card I chose for inspiration:

I was intrigued by the black shadows down the left side - when I saw the thumbnail, I thought they were stamped, which is where my idea came in.

I focused on:
-colour scheme
-focal point down left side
-texture on right side

I changed:
-amount of black 'layer' by just having it down my 'love' panel
-amount of texture (I used 'faux' embossing by gluing white hearts above  my sentiment
-added a sentiment

I used:
Avery Elle Handwritten Notes
Papertrey Ink Keep It Simple: Valentines
