I am so glad to dust off my dancin' shoes and waltz again with the Friends of Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog Waltz! The theme this month is Valentine's/Love, so here you go:
I used some Spellbinders dies to cut and emboss the lower scallops, and a Sizzix brocade embossing folder to emboss the background. The cardstock is white core so a little sanding reveals the white inner layer. I coloured the velvet ribbon with Victorian Velvet distress ink to match the distressed pink heart layer. I created the small heart brad with an I-top brad maker tool and highlighted with Glossy Accents. A couple of pink Swarovski crystals are the finishing touch. WMS stamp sets used to make this card: Seasons of Love - Tags, Nutcracker Sweet (small heart on brad), and Vintage Ornaments (background behind sentiment). I also used some WMS digital paper from Victoriana Papers. Details on this waltz can be found on the WMS blog. Hope you can join us and sashay around the room!

Wow, fabulous layering, and love that scalloped border!
WOW...this is drop-dead gorgeous! Holy cow...so many wonderful design elements to view. What a great idea to use the white core cardstock to reveal such texture. Awesome job.
Simply gorgeous, Charmaine. I really like the color combo and the way you used the different Spellbinders dies. The embossed panel is beautiful too. TFS!
Oh I love this, the layering, the cute brad and the fab scallop edge at the bottom, brilliant!!
This is just beautiful. I love the layered hear and all those lovely scallops. I think you've done the inside too - Claire's papers? Fab card!
