Good day crafty friends!
Today, I'm sharing a card for the first February challenge at the Double D. Diane's team is hosting along with additional inspiration from Darlene's team. The theme is "Vintage/Shabby Chic". They are giving away a great prize to one lucky person chosen by random draw.

The mood board offers lots of inspiration for creating. 
Vintage/Shabby Chic makes for a great romantic card...
I went with a simple easel card for this challenge. The lacy heart was cut and layered with three different papers adhering the patterned design on top. I used hot glue to add the pink tulle trim around the perimeter of the heart. Two pink pearls keep the easel in a standing position. I embellished the heart with additional pink pearls and added two stick pins at the top of the heart.
The sentiment is layered four times for dimension with the pink shadowed by the ivory. I inked the edges of the heart and card base to add more to the vintage design.

Vicki, You could not have gotten any more romantic! This card is fabulous with the lacey heart and the tulle around it. Amazing. Making it a stand up card so it can be displayed is a gift in itself. I think that you really got this challenge.
It may be a simple easel card, but it is simply fabulous! So vintage! That heart die cut is everything and I love the placement of it--what an awesome design! The added tulle is genius too! And that little 'calling card' I have so many wonderful emotions from this beauty! Well done!
Wow, this absolutely downright gorgeous, love the added tulle, just adds so much to the vintage/romance look, every detail is perfection!!
