Love Changes Everything

Hello All!  Kathy Jo here today to share a vintage style card using Quietfire's sweet sentiment, The Future is Uncertain:
The Future is Uncertain - Mounted
Told you it was sweet!  :)

The sentiment was stamped onto ivory card stock and die cut using Spellbinders Gold Circles One.  A white doily was placed under the sentiment.  I considered distressing the doily with ink but the white doily helped to emphasize the ivory die cut and sentiment.  The patterned paper is from Graphic 45- Sweet Sentiments.  I chose the paper for a few reasons: the name matches the description of the sentiment, it is beautiful paper, and because at CHA Suzanne Cannon and I took the Graphic 45 class together.  It was the first time Suzanne and I met and I really enjoyed the class with her!  I thought it would be great to have my first design post after CHA to include Graphic 45 paper.  
Suzanne's gorgeous stamps and Graphic 45 paper go so well together!  I love how she designed the "Love"!  Beautiful!
There was a little bit of fussy cutting involved but was worth it.  The hearts had to be cut out to go with the stamped sentiment!  Glossy accents was applied to the heart strand.  Stickles was applied to all of the butterflies and flowers.
Thanks so much for stopping by!  I do hope you enjoyed seeing the stamped sentiment and the project!  
Hugs,
Kathy Jo
