CAS(E) This Sketch #63 & PTI Anniversary, Day 1

Today, I have a card to share that I made for
 CAS(E) This Sketch #63 by Joni Andaya:

With this sketch, I decided to make a card Valentine's card, 

using some Crate Paper patterned paper and my new Wplus9 Valentine Wishes stamp set.

Here's my card:

Trying to match up the colours to the patterned paper, I stamped my wreath, flowers
and sentiment all directly onto my card stock.
I die cut the banner and stamped my banner image and sentiment onto that and adhered
it to my layout using dimensional adhesive.

I'm also linking up my card to the Wplus9 Birthday Celebration: Week 1 Challenge,
which is "Comfort Zone", because I used some Wplus9 stamps (with my favourite font!),
as well as some pretty patterned paper, which is totally one of my favourite things to do!

Visit CAS(E) this Sketch to see the rest of the DT's takes on the sketch 

and to play along, if you'd like.
You have until Thursday, February 13th to link up your card.

Before I go, I just want to share another card that I made for

 the PTI 7th Anniversary, Day 1 Challenge, 

which is to used one of the 7 sketches on Nichole's blog and pair it with one of the 7 colour combos she's posted.

For my card, I chose this sketch:

And I chose this colour combo, but I traded the new leaf for limeade ice: 

Here's my card:

I cut a half circle from some My Mind's Eye patterned paper and layered it over some aqua mist card stock. Then I matted it all on some coordinating MME patterned paper.
The sentiment (from Strawberry Patch Sentiments) was stamped in versa mark 
and heat embossed in white.
Some twine and a hibiscus burst button finish it off.

Thanks for looking!
