I had it in my head I wanted to do a paper weaving technique on a heart so here it is. I did the weaving and then stampped the upper part of the heart with Baroque Motifs. Then I decided I had to use my new stamp from embrace Life and decided it needed demension rather than being flat. I stamped and colored two images of the same flower and cut the petals on the one I used on the top and curled the petals. I used two of the petals for the leaves and hand drew the veins in them. I wanted to add ribbon to the bottom of the card and what better effect than to carry out the weaving. It needed a sentiment so I added the You make me happy from Boho Backgrounds using the ticket punch for the ends and having the pink peak out. The white bacground is the CB folder with Pomegranate brushed over it. The corners of the white were cut with the ticket punch and a dot of white gel pen added. I added the pearl in the center of the flower for an extra touch.

It's wonderful the way you continued the weaving on the card layers as well as the heart, and the Baroque flourishes look wonderful with your layout. Beautiful card!
