Hearts - I cut hearts, inked the edges, then adhered them as a 'decorative edge' along the bottom of my white paper. 

Typography - Used (4) different alpha's to create my title (in lieu of a photo). One of the paper strips behind my mat is a text paper.  The top and bottom red strip is an old Elsie 'love' script pattern. 

Fussy Cutting -  I used an old butterfly stamp I have to stamp onto patterned paper with Versamark.  Then I clear embossed the image. The butterflies were fussy cut.  Then I wrapped their 'body' with twine and tied them leaving long 'tails' to suggest antenna.  Cute, huh? 

Embossing - As I stated above, the butterflies were stamped and heat imbossed.  I highlighted the word love several times (on the red paper) with a glue pen, sprinkled them with clear embossing powder and heated them for added texture and dimension.   The white background paper is a heavily embossed pattern from Doodlebug. 

Edges - I started by making the red background narrower than the white layer. Then I distressed and outlined the edges.  Used (2) Fiskars border punches for the top strips above the white.  Glued a string of pearls to the top edge of the white. Tore and inked the edges of the layered papers behind my title.  Stitched the heart border to the bottom edge of the white in lieu of doing a scalloped edge.
