Beautiful Valentine - Red and White Hearts

Hello, crafty friends.  I hope all of you are doing well this fine Monday morning.  The sun is shining here and I am going to get outside to enjoy some of it today.   We had rain yesterday so I am guessing some of my friends on the East coast may be getting that today.

The card I am showing you today is for Classy Cards N Such for their Hearts challenge #122.  I chose to use red and white with a touch of silver for my card.  Here is the challenge picture for today.

This is the prize one lucky person will win for their entry for the challenge.  This could really come in handy making your Valentine cards.
Now we will get back to the card I created.  I started with a white glossy card base and added a layer of red foil card stock.   The  next white layer was made using the ODBD Lacey Square die.  I added another piece of the red foil card stock followed with the Spellbinders Vines of Passion die, but one could use the Memory Box LaRue Heart in place of it.   I don't have that die, but I plan to get it soon.

The silver foil heart was cut using the Impression Obsession Heart Flourish die.  I cut the flourish in three pieces so I could use two of the pieces behind the heart.

I used Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive to adhere the card pieces together.  I added pearls on the two corners from Finesse Swirls White Pearls.

I hope you liked the card for today.  I hope to see your heart with red, pink and white hearts entered in the Classy Cards N Such challenge this week.  Thanks,  for coming by today.
