Heart-shaped Map

I love old maps - funny, since my sense of direction is terrible! On this card, I used a map page torn from an old European travel guide.

I folded the map into a rosette, then hand-cut it into a heart shape. That part was tricky and the heart I ended up with is a lot smaller than the rosette I started with!

The sentiment is hand-stamped with individual letters because I didn't have a sentiment stamp that said exactly what I wanted, but this sentiment really makes the card perfect to me.

This card is posted in the Moxie Fab "Map to your Heart" Challenge.
