Red Pansy Valentines Day 8in Vintage Decoupage TopperCompleted by Pamela Horton The whispering Platypus

The brightness and definition in this design actually requires no extra enhancing. This is such a quick and easy card, just as it is presented, or you can add the decoupage or add your own embellishments.

I chose to stitch 3 tiny red seed beads to each dot on the scalloped edge. and a red rice bead to each corner and back the topper with green to enhance the ferns and red pearl finished paper to add dimension. I attached this to a crisp white good quality card with D.S tape,& added the pansies with D.S foam squares. I then made a crushed paper flower using different shade and textures of red paper, added some green craft card leaves, & a red stiff organza ribbon with tiny red rosebuds attached. The insert is a paler green splashed looking paper. To this I D's Taped a white large heart for the sentiment. A beautiful design to work with Thank you. Pamela Horton Wellington Point Qld
