I wish I could have done something with those colors, but I was looking at my DSP and thought this retired stuff would work.
I started by stamping the sentiment and cutting it out in a heart - then crumpling it. I layered it onto another heart and popped it up with dimensionals.
Then I cut strips of patterned paper and cut them into little pieces. The hard part was arranging them around the heart shape.
To finish it off I added a bit of ribbon embellishments and brads and corner rounded the top.
Thanks for looking. This was a lot of work and I'm not sure if I'll ever try it again!

Oh Trish! This mosaic is delish! I love your 'tiles' and beautiful 'crumpled' heart!
