This card has a Pool Party cardbase and then I added a layer of
First Edition Speciality DSP. On this piece is stamped with the
splatter image from the My Paper Pumpkin Welcome kit with Primrose Petals ink. I also added a piece of
Delicate Details Lace Tape. I used it as a stencil and sponged around it with Pool Party ink so it adds a nice subtle image. The next layer is a piece of
More Amore Speciality DSP and then
Victoria Lace Trim Ribbon, and
Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon that was scrunched up using
sticky strip to adhere the ribbon to the card.

For the main focal image, I used one of the Real Red laser cut hearts from the
More Amore Speciality DSP and then a large heart cut from the
silver glimmer paper cut with the
Big Shot and the
Hearts Collection Framelits. The greeting is from the
Word Play stamp set and is stamped with Real Red ink before being punched out with the
Large Oval Punch. I also sponged around the edges with Pool Party ink. This piece is matted with a piece of Crumb Cake that was punched out with the
Decorative Label Punch. To add a little "bling" I added a
rhinestone to the sparkle part of the image. Now I have to admit, I have a love affair with
dimensionals and due to all the layers of ribbon and paper I used several dimensionals to attached the heart and greeting and actually stacked some of them up so that it really "pops" off the cardfront.
This card is so full of detail and texture it will sure to WOW anyone who receives it!
