The image is Valentine Fountain by Leigh Hannan over at Impression Obsession. I stamped it with Brillianced Galaxy Gold on Neenah Solar White, and painted it with Twinkling H2O Moss Green. Highlights are Stickles Lime, Mark Richards pearls, and Glossy Accents.
The frame is Scalloped Fram by Splellbinders with Neenah Natural cardstock. The ribbon is May Arts and the bow was done with the Bow-Easy. The little wing on top was attached with a Glueo-Dot. Shamrock, right? The heart is a button from my stash.
The background is Bazzill Dark Green Polka Dot cardsstock stamped with the Impression Obsession Mega Mount and their Cover A Card Hearts with Brilliance Galaxy Gold. I used Bazzil Bling behind that..
