Scrapbook Page?! How about a card instead...

So I started out working on a 6x6 Scrapbook page. I knew I wanted to use my "Always" stamp set with the Sweet Always Designer Series Paper. I HAD to have this paper when I ordered it almost a month ago because they coordinated. But have I done anything with them yet....nope! I'm in a 6x6 swap, so I thought I would start working on ideas. I thought these two things would be fun to make a page with. So...I started out with a 6x6 page in mind. After I had put a few pieces together, it just wasn't coming together how I envisioned. (Does it ever for me, I'm beginning to think not! :) ) Anyway: it just wasn't working so I folded the 6x6 scrapbook page in 1/2 and made a 3x6 card instead. It felt much better actually finishing something, instead of just leaving a 1/2 done page done. :) And of course I had to add some sparkle so the hearts have Dazzling Diamonds on them. Here is the card that I did not intend to make...
Stamps: Always
Ink: Chocolate Chip Classic
Card Stock: Regal Rose, Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette
Accessories: Sweet Always DSP, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, Scallop Edge Punch, Chocolate Chip 5/8" grosgrain ribbon

This is such a cute card. I love that paper. I'm sure your scrapbook page would have turned out super cute though too. :)
