You Melt My Heart A sketch and Color Challenge

 I've made a card for a someone special for the upcoming Valentine's Day. The sentiment is "You Melt My Heart" from the Winter Gnomes sticker sheet. The challenges I used are the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 563 and the Color Dare Challenge 586. I'm also adding the Double Trouble Paper Craft Challenge 159 since they are using "Love Is In The Air" as the subject.
