Oh my goodness! What is there NOT to love about this card!  Heidi did a fabulous job combining designer paper in the chalkboard styling with a coordinated stamp set, both from the Anna Marie Collection by Prima. The sweet little dress which is the focal image of Heidi’s card today is further dressed up with velvet, lace and pearl buttons.  Add in some beautiful die cut shapes, Prima roses and a luscious seam binding bow and there you have it!  Oh, and be sure to check out how Heidi created the stick pin she used today.  Fun way to fancy up a rather plain pin.  And be sure to scroll all the way down to check out all the darling coordinates available in the Anna Marie Collection.  But first, here’s Heidi’s sweet card:

Isn’t this just darling!  LOVE that sweet dress image and how Heidi left it a simple black/white to coordinate with the background paper.

This is the little pin Heidi used today.  It’s a Memo Pin.  The wire separates so you can stick a little note in it.  Heidi just added a pearl to the top and turned this utilitarian pin into a “pretty” pin!  Very clever and good way to get double duty out of these pins. Fun little tip!
