I used the Silhouette Cameo to cut both the Lovely Cart and XO Heart Card Templates, cutting the pieces from Black, White and Pink card stock, and My Minds Eye pattern paper.

After opening the template in the Silhouette Software, I grouped the pieces by the color card stock I would be cutting from, then I edited the files to remove all the score (tick marks) except the ones at the very ends, so that they wouldn't show when folded.  
Once all the template pieces were cut, I manually added the score marks using the Scor-Pal.

To embellish my card, I added Styrofoam, moss and Zva Creative Mini Roses.  I also added a few Silver Gems to the awning.

To create the additional layers on the XO Heart Card Template, I created offsets for the Heart and Banner templates, and die cut those pieces from Black Card Stock.  To embellish I added some Silver Gems.
