Diecuts – and offcuts – of the new Stylish Hexagon Trio create a layered background for the Double Stitch Happy Hearts. Add tall, thin Twiggy Hugs and glittery gold accents and your card is ready to go! Hi, Jean Okimoto here with a peachy-pink hearts and hugs slimline design for February 14th – or any day.
Open Studio Watercolor Paper from my stash was sponged and brayered in shades of pink, coral and orange – then splattered with Imagine Gold Sheer Shimmer Spritz ink. Air-dry the ink for a few minutes, heat-set it, then cut the Stylish Hexagon Trio.
Attach the delicate outlines and the solid offcuts to a white slimline card (8-½” x 3-⅝”).
Cut the two smallest Double Stitch Happy Heart Cut Outs from the Holiday Glitter Pad gold cardstock. Save the small heart offcut for another project.
Cut Twiggy Hugs from the striped side of the pink Cottage Stripes and Dots 6×6 sheet. Leave the letters in the die and attach strips of Diecut ‘n Bond Tape. Run it through the machine – just once, to cut the tape but
keep most of the liner intact for easy removal. Keep the letters in the die and remove the liner pieces. Flip the die over onto the card, press it firmly to transfer the self-adhesive letters to the card.
Cut the gold glittered cardstock with the Honeycomb Square to create little hexagon accents.
Blend and brayer a stash of Open Studio Watercolor Paper backgrounds and have them ready for future projects. Some inks seem to soften, mellow and get prettier as they await your next project.
Thanks for visiting…keep safe, warm and crafting!
