JulieHRR's paisley prediction is sooo true! Everywhere I turn I see paisley!! Here are details for how I did this card: stamped Pretty Paisley bkgd stamp with VersaMark on black cs. Heat embossed white ep. Trim ¾" x 5½" section. Set aside this section. Prepare lovely lilac standard card base. Stamp Pretty Paisley bkgd stamp with lovely lilac classic ink on the inside of the card - right side only - about 1" in from the right. Trim side of card base front approx. 3/4" so paisley image peeks out. Stamp heart from Mini Medley set randomly on card front using VersaMark. Set aside. Ink Pretty Paisley bkgd stamp with lavender lace classic ink and stamp 5¼" x ¾" scrap of lav. lace cs. Adhere purple 3/16" grosgrain to the stamped lav. lace scrap and glue ends under scrap. Mount with dimensionals to card front as shown. Using second piece of grosgrain, tie knot 1/4 the way down from top of card. Thread pewter alarm clock charm (source: www.stores.ebay.com/starlitstudio )and tie into another knot, securing charm. Stamp alarm clock stamp in basic black classic ink on us white cs, punch out with 1¼" square punch. Using 1-3/8" square punch, punch out square from basic black cs. Mount stamped image onto basic black square. Adhere unit to lavender lace scrap; trim leaving border. Take ¾" x 5½" white ep/basic black cs paisley section that you set aside earlier, and adhere to back of card base, folding remaining strip around the front of card, forming a tab on the right side of the card. Adhere stamped, matted alarm clock image on top tab section that extends over the card front. Affix one-half of a black velcro dot to the back of the stamped, matted alarm clock image, then affix other side of the velcro dot half to the card front so the two velcro dot halves meet.

Very pretty card!! The white on black paisley is exceptional!! Love the pewter charm! Tried the website but wouldn't acknowledge it, maybe because the word "and" is highlighted?!? Regardless your card is awesome!!
