Mini Valentine

I made this for a local contest. The only requirement is that it has to have ribbon on it (the theme is Valentine's Day). I made a couple others which I will post later this week. I used the same red card stock and the same print paper on all of them. All scraps. But the pile is not going down any.
When this is folded flat, a tiny bit of the base card shows under the torn red edge. The base card is about 3 x 2 1/2 (folded) and then I cut a bit off the front for the red torn piece. I used a die cut for the envelop and flipped it backwards so the flap is on the back. Tied a bit of pink ribbon around the base and used a rub on from the dollar bin at Micheal's on the flap. All the edges of the off-white card stock are inked in Tim Holtz Worn Lipstick Distress Ink as the print paper is too. Layered the print paper on, the torn piece below the edge and then I attached the envelope with pop dots. In the lower right corner I used a piece of matching card stock and another rub on from the same sheet and then backed it with torn red and used pop dots here too.
