There's another opportunity to win some goodies at the Mod Squad Challenge. The requirements are to make a card that includes a heart and some glitter. Well, that's easy this time of year! I saw this design on Facebook and decided to try it for my submission.
First, I embossed the red cardstock with a honeycomb embossing folder, added different embossed piece in white (using Stampin Up Embossing Folder) and then added a thin pink border. Using Stephanie Barnard's Stamps of Life dies, I cut banners that were stamped with hearts and strung those across the top using Baker's Twine and tied on the ends. Heart-shaped brads were inserted into each banner. Finally, I added the "love" sentiment and a string of pearls before layering some punched hearts topped off with glitter. All of this was layered onto a white card base.
Banners and sentiment are from Stephanie Barnard's Stamps of Life.
Hearts were punched with Anna Griffin Heart Punch.
What a pretty Valentine you created. Love the embossed background and all those fantastic hearts.
ReplyDeleteSharon, thank you SO much for commenting on my typewriter card. You must have been around 8 years old when you went to secretarial school, as your profile photo shows you to be quite young! Aren't those vintage typewriter stamps fun? Your card here: gorgeous!! All those hearts are artfully arranged, and the heart brads...oh my, they have me swooning! How glad I am you stopped by "my place," because coming here for a return visit is an absolute delight!

Your card is just adorable Sharon. First of all, I love all the embossing and texture. I'm such a fan of that. And those little hearts on your tags are so cute. This is a perfect example of what Lee was looking for in this challenge.
