For my card I am using Verve's Treasured Words  and Tag Time stamp sets.  I am also using Verve's Cut Above Tag Rectangle die and I Heart U die set.  I finished with a seam binding bow and a few tiny silver pearls.  I am using this week's Mojo Sketch 279.
 
As always thanks so much for stopping by!  Enjoy the hop!  Next up is the super talented  Jen's Blog.
