Heart Shaped Wreath Card!

(Please click on image for close-up)

Firstly cut out the heart shape on white card using deckled

scissors, I find when you are cutting out anything freehand

you seem to get a more forgiving shape with these scissors!

I then cut to size a piece of velum and stamped my PB stamp

(which is a lovely quote by marcel proust!) with Encore!

ultimate metallic. Set a silver eyelet in the corner and added

white organza ribbon. I then placed three layers of foam pads

under the heart to give it a real lift. Then added silver holly

leaves, punched heart shapes from metallic and silver

glitter card, added lovely iridescent snowflakes and beads,

a large silver star and some smaller ones, I made the bow at

the bottom from silver string beads.

Good morning all you crafty bloggers, well the sun is shining

today; it's a lovely crisp morning here in Maldon, so I thought

I'd make a nice Silver wintery wreath card. This card is so

adaptable, it can be made plain or add as much detail as you

want, put your own personal message inside, have one

hanging from the middle! also the colour combinations are

endless, Gold would be pretty, pink, blue oooh take your pick!

They can be heart shaped or circular!

Think I will enter this one in the penny black Saturday
