Creating the Base:
I began by layering the black scalloped frame from the Lace Heart Layering Frames set onto a white card base. This contrast makes the design pop.

Die Cutting Magic:
Using the Lovely Layers: Playing Cards, I cut the suits and card shapes in white, black, red, and gold cardstock. These were layered together to create dimensional and eye-catching playing card designs. I placed the crowned suits prominently for a regal, romantic touch. The Ace card face was a last-minute change as I had done the backside of it first, you can see it peeking from the side there which made it even more realistic to playing cards.

Sentiments and Details:
The "We're The" sentiment, stamped with the Bee Creative Ink Pad - Intense Black, sets the playful tone. I combined it with a die-cut "Lucky Pair" sentiment in red and black to make it stand out.

Embellishing:
A few Simply Spring Gem Stickers were scattered for subtle sparkle, while the Gelly Roll White Pen added highlights to the die cuts for a polished finish.

Final Touch:
Assembled all elements on the card with foam tape for dimension, making sure the playing cards cascade naturally across the card front.
