For my 'fruitful' Valentine's card, I selectively embossed PTI Kraft cardstock and stamped a border image from Simple Valentine to frame my twill ribbon. For more texture, I hand-stitched over the little hearts in the border with embroidery thread. The sentiment was created using Simple Alphabet and Simple Valentine.
