Dasa's 90-Minute Scramble

 

Hello, everyone!  This is my first attempt at posting on my own.  So, I hope it goes through.  Sweet Brenda helped me with my first post last Sunday, while I visited her for a wonderful crafty weekend with her, Lisa, Trinh, and Vera.

I made this card for Dasa's 90-Minute Scramble today, at the Hero Arts Flickr Group.  I have not been feeling well, and have not had much energy to create.  So, this was the perfect opportunity to attempt to create something.  I love using Kraft-colored cardstock, kettle copper embossing powder, and hearts.
Tina created a beautiful card for my Mom with a burlap heart, so her card was my inspiration for this card.
(I wish I knew how to link to her card and blog.  I'll try to figure it out sometime soon.  HELP, Brenda!)


  

 Supplies:
Hero Arts:  (H2365)-Old French Writing, Die-Heart Frame Cut
Cardstock:  PTI - Kraft, Rustic Cream
Ink:  Walnut Stain-Distress Ink, VersaMark
Other:  Burlap, Kettle Copper Embossing Powder, Ribbon, Prima-Flower Center, PTI-Edgers #1 Die

Thanks for visiting my blog today, and for your sweet comments!
Have a wonderful weekend!

-Martha

Love the layers. The embossed background looks great with the ribbon, heart and gem.

Such a sweet card with the shaped edge. Love the copper embossing - makes such a great bg for the beautiful heart. And you finished the card with the ribbon and shiny embelishment in such a classy way.
