I made a heart envelopment and covered the front with rose dp. Used the sewing machine to do the paper piercing, then hand stitched in Kreinik gold metallic thread. Attached pearls and a ribbon.
Then I made a heart enclosure card which is also hand stitched and paper pierced. Embossed the message in gold and added ribbon rosettes to finish.
I will post a 2nd photo which shows the heart enclosure better.
I was actually kind of tickled how this turned out. I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Very pretty and I love how lined the pocket with pearls and the rosettes are so pretty. Great for the challenge and for a Valentine.

This is absolutely gorgeous!! I love everything about this, especially the perfect pearl placement and the way they graduate in size from the center. Excellent attention to details!!
