Aren't those just the sweetest little hearts?! I would love to have a drawer full of these as sachet's, or maybe even a few hanging in my craft room! I was totally inspired by the hearts, the colors (kraft and light pinks), and the lace and ribbons, and came up with this card inspired by the photo:
I started with a kraft base, then added a light pink panel and an embossed (SU!) white layer, before adding two hearts that I die cut using kraft (embossed with SU!'s Tasteful Textile) and DSP that I've had FOREVER and have no idea who makes it! I added some cream colored lace to the larger heart and a skinny piece of light pink seam binding ribbon to the smaller heart. I stamped a strip with the sentiment from The Greetery's Pretty Postmarks stamp set and then finished with a couple clear gems. One of the ladies in my bible study is a real vintage loving gal, and I think she will love receiving this for Valentine's Day!
This challenge closes shortly, so not much time left to play, but it's still worth the time to check out all the BEAUTIFUL cards from the DT and those in the gallery already, and you can find it all right HERE.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
