The challenge this week at Cheery Lynn Designs blog is Sweethearts. On the bottom panel of my card I used Antique Linen Distress ink directly on the Hearts and Leaves embossing plate before embossing to give a more vintage feel. This meant that I used the debossed side of the paper. The top panel I embossed Petite Hearts so the hearts are raised. The border across the center is the new Queen Anne's Lace. After die cutting the Celtic Heart, I debossed the center fall out the same way I did the bottom panel. I popped it up on the card for some dimension. Using Miniature Rose, Medium Rose and Large Rose to create my rose, I then added a bit of Carmel Creative Inspirations Paint to give it a warm tint and more sparkle. I was going for a very vintage mono-chromatic look. I think it is kind of classy! Finished size is 5.5" square.
