Good morning everyone....so glad I finished my challenge card in time to watch the Inauguration.
I just love old fashioned Valentines....this beautiful Rubbernecker Stamp Oasis image called Dove Heart remindes me of the elegant Victorian era. The image was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with copics. Dazzling Diamonds was added to the rose for a little glam. The edges were distressed, sponged with Ranger Frayed Burlap Distress Ink, and the Itty Bitty Background stamp was used around the edges with the Frayed Burlap. The Regal Rose background layer was run through the cuttlebug and then distressed on the edges. The Frayed Burlap was also used on the Regal Rose layer and on the Rubbernecker sentiment to add a little age.
The background dp is by Fancy Pants called Splendid and the gold heart button is from my button box. Ribbon, lace, and off white colored pearls from Stamper's Dream finish it off.
Thanks for looking and I hope you have a great day!
