Curtain Call: Soft Scarf

I adore the look of this soft and snuggly scarf in our inspiration photo from Curtain Call:

 
My first thought was to recreate the texture of the knitted pattern - embossing to the rescue!!



I used the basic colors, and sections, then added texture with a Cuttlebug dots embossing folder, a new SSS die cut sentiment and cover plate; and a precious little metal "love" heart from my stash.  I'm happy when the pieces just fall into place!

Thanks for stopping by!

This is such a soft and cozy card. Just like the picture. Love the texture and that little heart. The pinked edges are a great touch, and I like how your stripes are not all equal in width.

Love this card Michele! The embossing looks so great and I love the colors in this challenge, you have reproduced them beautiful. Your card has that "snugly warm" feel to it just like the inspiration photo! Hugs, Brenda

Now why didn't I think of that? You portrayed the scarf to a T, Michele, texture and all.
