LOVE...always and forever

Hi there! It's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week's challenge we want to know are you a red or pink person?
I LOVE to create with a pink and gold color palette and this week's challenge was perfect for this combination!
I was inspired to alter a piece of home decor this week:
I altered a piece of home decor with a generous application of crackled texture paint. Once the paint had works its magic, I randomly applied Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry Distress Paints and Metallic Gold acrylic paint. I embellished with a beautiful Spun Sugar Tattered Floral Flower along with Metallic Gold tipped Prima Lace Heart Resin pieces:

Be Sweet ;)
