Heart of Heart

Hello!  Thanks so much for stopping by

 

Today I want to share a card I made from the new Craftin Desert Divas January release.  The die is called Heart of Heart .  It come with an amazing 4 dies total.  There is so much you can do with this!

 

I chose to start off with red cardstock and cut the heart die.  I saved all of my left over hearts as I wasn't sure how many I'd be using on this project.  I then knew I wanted to have one heart a different color to stand out.  So I cut the heart die again in white and placed one heart among the red. 

 

I tried a few different ways to lay out this card and you can't go wrong with splattered paint!  I took out my dylusions white paint and Tim Holtz splatter tool and went to town.  I did not splatter the pink layer under the red.  I wanted that straight pink.

 

I always lay paper underneath what I am splattering.. this way I have a masterpiece from the over splash.. On the right panel that worked out perfect from the overspray.  I layered white behind and use 3m foam tape to give it some height.  Then using 2 white hearts from the previous cut. 

 

Love with the arrow is another die cut in the Heart of Heart, so I cut that in white.  I wanted this bold so I left it a solid white. 

 

Using some sequins from Craftin Desert Divas sweetness mix I randomly placed these.  I had made enamel dots from perler beads a while back and so I placed on in each corner..

 

This turned out so incredibly gorgeous.  I'm in love with it and might have a hard time mailing this one out! 

 

Thanks for stopping by!  I do hope this has inspired you to be crafty

Happy crafting

Hello!  Thanks so much for stopping by

 

Today I want to share a card I made.  Valentine's Day is right around the corner, but this style could be used for any time.

 

I used the Heart Background from Die - Versions and cut a solid pink layer behind.  I then took a scrap piece of paper with Brutus Monroe wagon ink and a blender tool.  I wanted the edges to have the bold edged look.  I then took You are a Sweetheart stamp from the Simon Says Stamp Hello, Beautiful and embossed that in scarlet from Brutus Monroe.  Adding some red/white twine and a few sequins from Craftin Desert Divas Sweetness mix.

 

I then placed foam squares on the back of my scrap piece of paper for some dimension.. Added some kraft paper to the background and poof a perfect card!
