Designer Darling Contest Round 2

It is now Round 2 of the Designer Darling Contest.  This round's challenge was to create a kit with a monochromatic palette.  It took me quite a while to decide on a color, and then even longer to figure out a theme.  But in the end, I am very pleased with what I came up with.  It is a Valentines/Love kit with a twist.  It is called Gamble on Love and it contains 7 papers and 13 elements. You can download it from the Designer Darling Round 2 thread in the STS forum by clicking here.  My post is closer to the bottom, so you will have to scroll down to find it.

If you like my kit, PLEASE be sure to go back and vote for it at STS once voting starts.  I will post a link on my blog to help remind you :)  THANK YOU!!

I've also created an add-on to go with this kit.  I just had so much fun creating that I couldn't stop.  Here is the preview of the add-on.  It contains 3 papers and 10 elements.
