Today I'm playing along with Papertrey Ink and their Make it Monday challenge #309, heat embossed stencil backgrounds. I couldn't sleep this morning because I started this card last night and I really wanted to put it together and add the sentiment. Melissa has such a way with vintage floral cards and I've always loved her style. The new Farmers Market Florals stamps are so beautiful and they make it easy to get that beautiful floral arrangement. I used my Heart Cover Plate to create a stencil and then I covered the hearts in glittered embossing powder to give them a pretty shimmer. It's hard to capture in a picture but very pretty in person. The second picture shows the glittered hearts a little better than the first. The sentiment is from the Envelope Envy stamp set and I love how the sentiment stands out in white embossing powder on black paper. I popped it up on a die from bountiful banners. Here is my card for this week, I hope you get some crafty time in today, it's such great therapy!
Have a great day everyone!
I already am!

Gorgeous card and what a tribute to Melissa's style, yet your own. The tone on tone embossed effect perfectly supports the bouquet.
