Wednesday with Heartfelt Creations

Hi there Heartfelt Creations fans, hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far.  My card today features some of the new stamps and dies from the "Chateau Gate" collection.  For the background I embossed a piece of patterned paper and  slightly inked the edges and embossed areas with walnut stain distress ink.  I used the decorative window die to make the decorative corners and attached a black brad as a final touch.
All the images I stamped on white 110lb. Wausau cardstock and colored with my Prismacolor color pencils and OMS.  I also added some sparkle to the roses with a Stardust glitter pen.
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and visit, make sure to hop over to the HC Blog for lots more inspiration.
