More Valentine Ideas using Surprising StencilGirl Stencils and Masks

Today, I'm using my 6" x 6" stencil Quilted Flower Garden to make a Valentine greeting card ...

I've chosen textured gold foil paper, using a free-hand cut heart-shape as a pattern.  I placed the pattern on the back-side of the textured gold paper, traced it with a pencil, and cut it out with fine-detail scissors from Fiskars.
