This is for two challenges. Sunday's Featured Stamper Challenge 103 and today's TLC205 to design with paper pleats. I was so excited to see my friend, Vicky as the featured stamper for this week. SHe has a wonderful gallery and I had to take quite a while to pick something of hers to case. I finally decided on this wonderful card. Love is caring . . .Vicky Gould by Vicky Gould at Splitcoaststampers I changed up the color combination but stayed really close to the layout. I loved Vicky's paisley embossing and soft pink paper but I thought I would kick it up with heart embossed green dp and red fflowers. I thought these colors would highlight the eyelet pleats perfectly. There are no stamps or ink involved in this project and believe it or not there is no tree either. : )
Paper: SU DP, Kiwi Kiss, Red

Kittie, your card is gorgeous... Love the color combo and you layout is wonderful... Love how you pleated the scallop paper, it looks like eyelet lace peeking out from under your dp.
