I started by choosing CS colors and coordinating DSP to go with the colors in the challenge picture. After I had decided on my layout I attached two lengths of Pistachio Pudding thick baker's twine vertically on the Daffodil Delight CS and punched holes for the brads with my paper piercer. I was delighted to find these silver heart brads in a box of misc embellishments that my D-I-L gave me and they were exactly what I needed to fill in the remaining space. I adhered the Daffodil Delight CS to my Whisper White card base, then added the Pistachio Pudding CS and the DSP panel. My punched out hearts needed something to make them stand out from the DSP so I chose a silver Metallic Foil doily to do that as well as balance out the silver heart brads. The sentiment is one that I had in a container of misc pre-stamped sentiments so I don't know what stamp set it is from, but it had been punched out with the Modern Label punch. I mounted it on dimensionals over the hearts. I took one length of Pistachio Pudding thick baker's twine and two lengths of Crushed Curry baker's twine and tied them together into a bow. I ended up using a glue dot to position it on top of the vertical strands of baker's twine because I couldn't get it to lay how I wanted it by tying it around them. I added a Blushing Bride enamel shape heart and two dots around the sentiment to finish it off.

Love those beautiful soft colours with the touches of gold, Eunice. I think your twine bows are a lovely finishing flourish. Thanks for playing along with us again at As You See It Challenge.
