Hearts and Flowers

This card came about purely because I decided it was high time I played with my new Fliiterglue from Indigo Blu, hence I was messing about with it and guilding flakes.  I stamped the image (also from Indigo Blu) onto black card and covered in guilding flakes.  When dried i really liked what had turned out so I found one of those prediecut aperture crads, youknow the ones, the ones you buy when new to cardmaking, use once and have a stack left, well yeah those.  I used the heart aperture to frame the heart stamp, and then mounted this onto a 5X5 cardblank that I had covered in black card and punched the lattice work using a Martha Stewart punch.  I then added the flowers to give it more romantic feel.



I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:
