Today’s card was made, mostly, with the Birds & More Dies, but you’ll notice there are no birds. So, this is the “More.”

“More” Hearts

 

I began with the “foliage” circle die , which was used to cut from Thick Basic White Cardstock. Then, I cut the “foliage” circle from the cardstock using the largest Layering Circles Die. It just happens to be the perfect size!

Next, I used the largest Layering Circles Die to cut from Fine Art Floral Designer Paper in the Pool Party, brush stroke, pattern. After gluing these circles together, I made it thicker by gluing to a third circle, cut with the Layering Circles Die.

 

The background for my circle is Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, given detail at the bottom with another “More” Die. After stamping “from the bottom of my heart,” I glued the layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. But, keep reading to see how I curved the sentiment.

 

The bendability of photopolymer stamps is one of their great features. This sentiment is from the Ornate Thanks Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Black, and curved with the help of my Stamparatus. I used the Layering Circles Die to judge the curve while sticking the sentiment to the lid of the Stamparatus. Pretty nifty, huh?

I hope you can see from my photo how it was done. Yes, I have a broken magnet. I thought I was home free, because after two years, I had two whole magnets. But, alas, it happened. Those magnets have a mind of their own!

 

Last, but not least, the sweet, little hearts. Using a heart stamp from the Birds & Branches Stamp Set, I stamped the heart in four colors of ink (Pool Party, Flirty Flamingo, Petal Pink, and Daffodil Delight) on Basic White Cardstock. Then, I cut the hearts with, yet another, “More” Die, and attached them with Mini Dimensionals.

 

I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
