Queen of Hearts


'Swirls',  is the theme of Challenge 43 , this coming fortnight over at Fashionable Stamping Challenges.
There's  exciting news as well, we have a new sponsor Flonzcraft.
Please pop over for all the details, see what my design team sisters have all been making
 and welcome our  Guest Designer,  Astrid .
This 4 x 4 inch Fat Page is also my monthly swap for March.
Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of the tag slipped in between the back and front cover.






The base layers of both sides were put through an embossing folder, then shaded with Tumbled glass and Salty ocean distress inks
The Queen of Hearts is a Crafty Individuals stamp, slightly shaded with Victorian Velvet  distress ink.



The reverse side is stamped up with a Love Poem an old Inca stamp.


Thank you for taking time to stop by, all your comments are appreciated.
