http://inthepinkchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/challenge-10-pink-and-pearlie.html

Spellbinders Heart Shape die used to cut the felt-hearts

Lace and Pearls: Wild Orchid Crafts

Ribbon, Roses, beads, tassle and angel charm from my stash

The lace was hand-stitched on to the felt and then the 2 felt hearts was stitched together using blanket stitch and left a small opening for the stuffing, which was then stitched with blanket stitch to close it after it was stuffed.

The little angle charm was spray painted with pink Rust-Oleum Spray paint.

Beads and pins was pushed through the flower centres and then attached to the thin metal wire that hold together the ribbon, pearls, flowers and beads.
