I love hearts, and no matter what paper you use, they look beautiful. For today’s heart I used one of the Hearts Of Elegance Dies with Flowering Zinnias Designer Paper. You can see the entire, Online Exclusive, bundle in my Product List below. The detailed edge of this heart is wonderful!
Have you tried “paper tearing” for a different look? The heart began with four torn pieces of designer paper glued to Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″. Then, I used the Hearts Of Elegance Die for cutting.
For the background, I used the So Swirly Embossing Folder on Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″, which I glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
The sentiment is from the Hearts Of Elegance Stamp Set. For contrast, I stamped “xoxo” in VersaMark on Basic Black Cardstock, and sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder. After setting it with the Heat Tool, I used a Stylish Shapes Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. Three Shiny Sequins were added as a finishing touch.
It was so much fun tearing the paper, this could become a favorite technique!
