Rustic Valentine's Day Themed Heart Escort Card Display

This takes about 2-3 hours!  I've been designing a lot of rustic Valentine's Day themed stationery items.  I really enjoyed putting this escort card display together.  I picked up a lot of items at Michael's Arts and Crafts and then created away!  It works really great on any type of window shutters.  This could look even more rustic with rustic looking wood.  Below are DIY instructions for this project.  First I tied three long strands of burlap string (this string had a little bit of silver metallic in it from Michael's Arts and Crafts).

Then I printed up hearts on burlap colored cardstock paper and cut them out.  This paper was great because it looks somewhat recycled.  I used red and pink clothespins to attach the heart escort cards.

After attaching the hearts I took a brown marker and marked initials on pink flags and wooden hearts and then attached them with silver ribbon and pink/white Baker's twine.

Then I added a bunch of cut-out hearts from a cardstock page from a Valentine's Day mat pad that I picked up at Michael's Arts and Crafts.  They added some glitz and glam because they had metallic backgrounds.

Then I created some hand-made burlap flowers made of natural jute ribbons.  The outer layer of petals has some silver embedded in the jute.  I loved making these, so much fun!

Lastly I designed an instructions sign and tied it with burlap string above the display.  I used one red pin to hold it up.
