This valentine heart is edged using one of 
Beryl Taylor's inventive techniques - hot glue painted with gold leafing pen. I am a huge fan of her work and highly recommend her book, 
Mixed Media Explorations. 

My friend and Shake Rag cohort, Cheryl Smeja, is a retired leather crafter with a myriad of skills in a wide variety of arts and crafts, among them fiber. She gave me a pile of paper towels she had used to clean up after doing some fabric dyeing. Vibrant, rich colors...the perfect background for these two valentines:
 

Another paper towel background, this time with a heart cut from freezer paper palette.
 

Two fabric paper hearts on more palette paper with other collaged papers:
