FS101 LSC202 The Cursed Heart

I named this card "The Cursed Heart" because if anything went wrong, IT WENT WRONG! This is the image that I had a fight with for the Limited Supplies Challenge on SCS which I never got done until now. I had to set it aside for a couple of days. When I saw the Featured Stamper Jaydekay's gallery tonight I thought I would try to create a card casing one of her cards. I started out by stamping the heart with versamark ink onto vellum. I used black emboss powder and heat set. I colored with markers on the embossed side. Cut out! This is where I had a fight, because every which way I put it, it didn't look right with anything for the LSC. So, here it is in the FS. I mounted the image onto a scrap of dp (it really does have fainted hearts in it, hard to see) and sponged with black ink around the edges. Mounted on black. I added gold cording across the front and mounted it using 3D pop dots. At first, I had regular rhinestones, but I changed them to hearts which I embossed gold. I had to make 2 separate pieces. Long story about the red background. I'll make it short. I ran out of my favorite red, and this is the only piece I had left with the sponged black on it. I hope it looks ok. Then I took another piece of scrap of the same red and used the decorative heart punch and added gold ribbon to hide the seam. Didn't I tell you that this is the heart image that wanted to win the fight? Well, I think I won, because I used it tonight, plus it's in 2 challenges. Have a blessed day.

*I bought this stamp at a garage sale for 25 cents, otherwise I don't think I would of ever bought it myself.*
