Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge #606: Hearts of Elegance

Good morning,

I'm back with another card today, and yes, it's Valentine's themed, this time playing along with this weeks Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge for this quick and easy card with a little bling.

I started with a Melon Mambo cardbase and then added Basic White cardstock as the cardfront.  To this I added a square of Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper that's matted with Melon Mambo cardstock.

Next I cut a couple of different hearts using the Hearts of Elegance dies as well as the same DSP and Gold Foil.  I used dimensionals to pop up the gold hearts (the little gold heart at the top is made using a retired heart punch which was just the perfect size).

On top of one of the hearts I added a double bow tied with Real Red & White Baker's Twine.  To finish off the card I stamped the greeting on the bottom using the Hearts of Elegance stamp set and Melon Mambo ink.

The designer series paper has so man different colors you can pick and choose which color to showcase, and I will admit with all the gold foil accents it's hard to use the reverse side but there are some wonderful subtle patterns on those sides which are not to be missed.  This is a great card sketch that could be used so many different shapes for an occasion which is awesome!
