Here is my take on the challenge this week...  

 


This sweet image is from the new Little Girls Set released this month.  I love the vintage silhouette image on this and the beautiful font of the sentiments! Here is a picture of the set where you can see all the other sentiments that it has with it:





This is a very simple card.  I just stamped the image with Victorian Velvet Ink, then the two sentiments over it with black ink.  Then I just diecut it with Decorative Labels One Die, inked the edges a little, and popped it up on the card.  The card is 4 1/4" square that I added an embossed mat, lace, ribbon, pearls, and a button to.

Card recipe:

Stamp: Little Girls (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Ink: Victorian Velvet Distress Ink, Onyx Black (VersaMark)
Paper: Natural White (Neenah), Blushing Bride
Accessories: Rose Petal Seam Binding (Really Reasonable Ribbon), lace (Jo-Ann's), adhesive pearls, Paper Lace II Embossing Folder (Cuttlebug, Labels One, Decorative Labels One Dies (Spellbinders), sponge, button

I'm submitting this to the following:

Word Art Wednesday Challengne #63 - Anything Goes.
Really Reasonable Ribbon Challenge #64 - Valentine's Day/Love & Ribbon.

    The silhouetted looks so pretty in pink, and makes this such a sweet girlie card. And the combination of that amazing lace and the seam binding with the decorative frame is just so perfect.
