Dangling Heart

Oh sweet Tilda, isn't she just the cutest little thing? I actually think that this is a Christmas image but that heart was calling me to turn it into a Valentine's Day Card! giggling.......... So I did! Now, I got a sewing machine for Christmas and for those of you who know me they are laughing hysterically, probably rolling on the floor because I am soooooo not domestic in that way. I just hope to keep it working for cards alone. So I stitched in white (sorry, it was the only color I had at the time!) my first layer! What do you think? Kind of boring? yeah- well I need practice for sure. I use K&Co Valentine paper and then added a little glitter to it to give it a little sparkle. The heart is an inkadinkadoo I think and I stamped in SU Rose Red and hung it there, popped on some dots. The ribbon is also SU Rose Red.
