Birthday Heart

One of the things that I like to do from time to time is take an image such as this one (which is a Christmas image) and see if I can use it for another occasion.  Sometimes it works - sometimes it doesn't!

I am entering my card into the following challenges:
Love to Create - Button it Up

CHNC - Patterned Paper

I used a background paper from a paper pad I bought yesterday. I can't quite read the brand name of it as it is in such a small font!  The image is from Eureka Stamps.  I used the colours from The Outlawz Tuesday Challenge as my basis for the colour scheme.  I used the dark grape colour over the portions of the heart that had holly leaves on them.  I'm just hoping that they don't show through when I photograph as I can't see them at the moment!  I used some glitter cardstock from DCWV for matting, Spellbinders dies, lace from Sullivans, pearls from Sullivans, button from my Mum, and a sentiment from Sans Designs.
