Welcome, and thank you for visiting today.
With a short month and some distractions, I was running late with my usual card making for March, so spent most of the weekend in my studio, card making. What a marathon, not that I am complaining, you understand.
On Friday evening I was asked by a friend to make an engagement card for her daughter, and although she did not give me a 'deadline', I knew that her daughter was visiting on Saturday, and that would be a great time for her to give it.
I started with the classic red and white and gold combination that I love
- and partly because they are a more mature couple.
I made an easel card, and embossed the panel on the front with the cuttlebug Hearts folder, and layered a ribbon with a sentiment panel over that. The sentiment is only part of a stamp, which I often use as it is very versatile.
The ribbon was used again on the foot of the card, along with the sentiment and the gold embossed hearts - placed using the stamp-a-ma-jig to have them looking as though they are entwined.
The card was finished with little gold heart shaped brads on both panels.

Thanks for visiting - May your day be blessed

A lovely, stylish card. That's a great sentiment. I hope they were pleased with it. In fact, I'm sure they were! Kate x
So pretty Maxine, the attention to detail really makes this special such as the heart shaped brads!
Hi Maxine! It's always a highlight for me when you are able to play along with us. I realize how incredibly busy life can get, and so...when you have time to create and share with us, it means so much. I can always see the attention you give to detail, and I appreciate you sharing of your time and talents. May God bless you as you create for Him and share your artistic gifts with others.
