  • Love Heart One

    Posted on by Julie Comment


    A sweet Valentine or wedding/anniversary card made with the opposite (left over) pieces of Love Heart Two. I used the same die cuts plus a piercing, quilted look die on the white topper.  Some added pearls give it a little extra elegance.

    Even though the Love Heart Two posted first, this is the actual first card. Since I die cut all the pieces twice, once out of white & another out of the sweet designer paper, I found I could make two cards at once. Related, but not identical; sort of like fraternal twins. Don’t you love it when you can make a two-for-one?

    This is also for my Inspiration Challenge (IC948) on Splitcoast & THIS is my inspiration.

    Like my other card, I die cut the heart, birds out of white & the designer paper, then pieced them together. The white top panel was die cut w/ a quilted look piercing die. I attached flat back pearls in places where the diamonds came together. A tiny heart punch was used to add the pink heart in the center of the O in Love.

    Thanks     so much for stopping by!

  • Love Heart (Two)

    Posted on by Julie Comment


    A sweet, pretty in pink, Valentine, wedding or anniversary card using some new dies & paper. Looks fancy, but it’s easy to make & the bonus is you can make a second, opposite card using the leftover paper & die cuts. (That will be coming in a later post.)

    For the Inspiration Challenge (IC946) we are visiting My Red Door & their Pinterest Board where I was inspired by THIS pillow.

    For my card, I die cut the beautiful heart w/ birds once out of white & again using the pink patterned paper. I used the Love die & cut the word in the top of the white heart, allowing the pink paper to show through.  I used the pink outline of the heart w/ the white inside of the second heart. The fancy background was cut out of white & backed with the rest of the pink paper. The missing heart in the center of the pink paper is covered by the fancy white layer, so no one will know it’s even missing. The little bird bodies were also cut out in areas that wouldn’t be seen.

    The birds have white wings added & the birds as well as the big heart are popped up a bit for dimension. Three white half pearls were attached in each of the four corners.

    Thanks     so much for stopping by!

    A card for that pair of love birds on your list..perfect for wedding, anniversary or engagement. Features some beautiful new die cuts & high contrast color combo. Change up the colors to match those special occasions.

    A big congrats to Andastra, the newest Featured Stamper (FS853)! She has such gorgeous pages & I chose THIS page to case. I love the rectangular photo as the main element so I kept that & the flower embellishments. But I turned it into a card & used different dies & colors. I wanted the horizontal element but couldn’t work it in so I subbed the layered Love greeting.

    My card features all die cut elements. I die cut the lg royal blue panel & smaller white panel w/ the square hole edge die set. I used a bright orange for the bird cage & Love dies. Only the flowers/leaves were used behind the birdcage panel. I love how open they are & let the blue show through.

    The blue birds & cage were popped up just a bit as well as the white panel they’re on & the Love greeting.

    Thanks     so much for stopping by!
