White Baby Card (LOTV All Our Dreams)

Image
Hello! Happy Friday! Hope it's been a good week for you! I've attempted another White on White card! How many ways are there to make a white background using only white card and no embossing tools? My last one I used liquid pearls and this time I had a lightbulb moment and punched lots of hearts from white card and stuck them down!  Had very painful hands after all the punching and took ages to stick them all down though!! Lol I used: LOTV  All our dreams stamp Promarkers Woodware butterfly punches Hobbycraft heart punch WOC Lace Liquid pearls in the corners and on the butterflies Scalloped scissors and heart pearls Thanks for looking :-) Have a lovely weekend!
