t-potters cookie picture.
something blue....there are blue
flowers in the
wallpaper
TY Sabrina for the fun challenge. So glad to be able to join today...
I cut out the template heart from good old google. Traced the middle heart and cut it out separately after glueing the little patchwork squares on the back side and glued it onto the big heart. Did not quite center or something so had to add a small layer so added soem new lace that has the sticky on it like tape, then the bg white looked funny so cut out a border strip with a edge punch, cut tiny slits along the way to bend the strip around the hearrt and glued them on. was going to add a sentiment to the fron, but after trying different ideas decided to just keep it simple and put the sentimen on the inside. Thanks for the visit...HUGS

I'm glad that today's challenge gave you all the right ingredients to quilt this beautiful heart-shaped card. The combination of the quilting, the trim and the decorative border make for such a lovely card.
