This heart is for my Granddaughter.. I did one on a little make and take again the MDF (Watch out for him at craft shows) man at the Dome craft show a few weeks ago just papers and no embellishments.. she tried to pinch it..so said I would do her one, with all the trimmings ...they are going to  rent a  house ( my daughter is gutted that she is doing this).. she wanted purple`s  in the design to hang in the bedroom..


The flower is spellbinders D-Lites create a rose..bit fiddly to make..and shapeabilities foliage flourish..
