This was a fun card to make. I started with an A2 size cardbase and trimmed a panel a bit smaller to leave a little bit of a border. I inblended the stencil with some red distress ink. Before removing the stencil I covered it with glossy texture paste that would give a wonderful shine to the red stenciled pattern. I set aside to dry. After it was completely dry I die cut the XOXO out of the center and ink blended a bit more with the same red distress ink. I then used pink distress ink for the panel I had cut the XOXO out of. I then used foam adhesive to pop up the XOXO and adhered them back from where I cut them from. I stamped a sentiment and added it to the center of the bottom O with some white flat pearls.
