Skipping Stone Design Sketch Challenge

It's my first time playing along with the Skipping Stone sketch in a timely manner :)  I think a goal of mine for this year is going to be to play along with different challenges when I can....I went blog hopping while the dogs were napping this past weekend and found a bunch of new inspiration to get me going!  I went super CAS on this card with only using white cardstock and red as my punch of color.  The top embossed layer (using a swirly Taylored Expressions impression plate) is popped up so that it looks like windows with the medium sized PTI heart die.  And I totally measured the placement of the hearts so that they weren't crooked (this is actually the second version of this card....the first one was going great until the LAST heart turned out crooked!).  Patterned paper is from Echo Parks Yours Truly collection.  Get ready to see a lot of that on the blog coming up as I'm making most of my valentines with it.  Some white stitching around it and PTI die cut letters as a sentiment and I'm calling it a simple card.  Thanks for stopping by!

This is such a pretty card. Your hearts are perfectly straight. I like how they look with patterned paper behind.
