Hey, who hearted?, hee hee! Being around a 3 and 4 year old for most of the week has brought me down to their level, yikes!
I used Cosmo Cricket heart chipboard, and crackle paint, yay! I honestly hated chipboard until I discovered this...now the possibilities are endless! I even rubbed pigment ink on the outline of the one heart, and then embossed it with versamark to make it shinier than the rest...and my dots are the button from the SU paper doll sets...I used my paper piercer to poke holes at somewhat even intervals, and then stamped the button over the holes...that's a new technique for the spatially challenged like me!
Thanks for ANOTHER fun tea party, Cindy! Looks like I will have to work on finding that martini glass teapot for you next year!

It was probably you that hearted! Cuz you are a stinker, remember????? This card is so awesome! I heart the look of it! You did good inventing your own technique to do evenly spaced background paper! Your glossy heart is so pretty.....

I like your hearts, and the "country" look...(can you tell what theme my house is decorated in? I also really like to see buttons used on cards...great idea

The chipboard hearts are fantabulous, and I love the little bit of gingham ribbon behind the button. This is so cute, stinker Kelly! I had a great time at the tea party with you!
