Hello there. This quick and simple Valentine’s card was intended for my hubby, but he came by and saw it just as I was finishing up… <grrr>😂 Guess it’s back to the drawing board.
Anyway, I started by die cutting the Butterfly Heart Frame from Bristol paper. It was adhered to velum trimmed to the same size, then to an A2 sized gray panel.
I wanted to add dimension only to the heart, so used scraps of Bristol paper to die cut just the heart portion twice. Trimmed away unwanted parts to get the heart ring.
I thought about ink blending the heart cut-out, but saved myself some time and die cut another heart from a scrap of red cardstock. The sentiments from Big and Little Valentine’s stamp set were white heat embossed on it, then black soot distress ink was sponged around the edges for some dimension. Spritz the whole card with a shimmer spray for some sparkle to finish.
And that was it! Thank you for dropping by. Have a wonderful day!
