Love

This is an octagonal card I made using my Gypsy and George and Basic Shapes. I welded two 5" octagons together for the base of the card. I then cut a 4" white octagon and embossed it with the Perfectly Paisley embossing folder. I tied a ribbon around it with the jeweled heart charm. I used my scalloped circle Nestabilities dies to cut two scalloped circles out of pink and white. I used the Perfectly Paisley embossing folder again on the white circle. I layered those on the octagon base. I used Create a Critter to cut out the "love" sentiment and Paisley for the paisley. I finished it all off with some Stickles around the edge of the white octagon and as a heart in the paisley.
I made this for the following challenges:
Cuttlebug Challenge: use pink as the main color and add a sentiment
ABC Challenge: C is for Charms
365 Cards: Shape Up-use a polygon with a minimum of 5 sides as dominant shape
Crafty Creations Challenge: Use white and one other color
Cricut Cardz: Use scalloped circles, ovals, squares and rectangles
