I wanted to try some new things with my card that I have seen others in bloggy land do~ embossing on vellum and doing the lasso type thing with twine. I am very happy with the way this card turned out too! What are your thoughts?
I started with some black card stock as my base and added a layer of white and then a very light pink card stock. I heat embossed the "forever" sentiment using Paper Smooches~We Connect stamp set and then with my sewing machine stitched it to my card mats.
The additional sentiments are also from the same Paper Smooches stamp set and those adorable hearts are from the My Guy set.
I did color the hearts using my copic markers, randomly placed some silver sequins onto my card and wrapped the Totally White Trendy Twine through the vellum, leaving it loose and in no particular pattern.
