Embossed Love

DSCF2549

Just felt like stamping for fun yesterday, found a few challenges and combined them for a shabby chic card:

DSCF2547

This card began when I took a few embossed pieces of our new Core-dinations paper, cut them into squares and mounted them on a scallop which was diecut from a page from an old house plant book.  I added some hearts, a piece of lace, a text pennant, and a sweet little sentiment from Pennant Parade:

The image behind the “Love” is from Collage Curios, which I just need to play with some more!!!  So many cute little images in that set!  The background was stamped with Distressed Dots, and the vertical panel is a piece of vellum embossed with the Vine Street EF from the SAB catalog. 

Here are the challenges:

Stampin’ Royalty #160, polka dots; Little Red Wagon, text; and Freshly Made Sketches #70:
