Sweet Sentiments



We are going all romantic over at Sugar Creek Hollow for this next challenge, our New challenge theme is 'Love and Adore'.
Please pop over for all the details.
This time I have made a heart shaped hanging.

First of all I drew my heart shape  once on plain card, before using it as a shape stencil for some pretty paper. This was given the random stamp treatment using paler inks, the blot it first method.
Next came the fiddly bit of fixing the lace between the two shapes.
Then to the part  I like best adding the focal images, in this case  from Graphic 45 Sweet Sentiments pack.
Some flowers, mesh  and lace  trimmings, to finish it off.

Thank you for stopping by to take a look, I do so appreciate you calling.
