I have mixed two of the heart stamp sets that are current with Stampin’ Up!. The Adoring Hearts stamp set and the Hearts of Elegance Dies. Add some gorgeous DSP and you have a lovely card.
STAMPS
The focal heart is made from the two products mentioned at the beginning. The sweet sentiment and the flowers are from the Adoring Hearts stamp set. I had the idea of the paper and heart but what to be the focal part was a problem. As soon as I looked through the stamps in the stamp set I found exactly what would fit.
These are stamped after the heart is cut. That makes placement very easy. The flowers are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored using Old Olive and Pretty In Pink Stampin’ Blends.
DIES
The heart die cut is from the Hearts of Elegance Die set. Is it a part of the bundle with the DSP and the Gold Twine. There are two large hearts, a solid and an outline. Then there are a series of layering dies. This is the second largest of those.
PAPERS
To help the marbled sheet of DSP stand out I used a second sheet from the pack. These are both from t he Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper. I was not sure in the beginning how well they would work together. After layering the White I was sure I had chosen correctly to help everything stand out.
The card base is Pretty In Pink which is the lightest color in the marbled DSP. The layers measure 4 X 5 1/4, 3 7/8 X 5 1/8, then 2 3/4 X 4 and 2 5/8 X 3 7/8. The heart was from a scrap of Basic White.
EXTRAS
There are two extras to complete this card. I wanted to carry on with the gold. So I chose the Gold Twisted Twine. It is wrapped around the marbled layer three times. I then added a triple strand bow to the front. I tucked the heart behind the twine thinking it looked better that way.
The bling is a subtle one. I went with a single bling for a change. This is the Regal Foiled Adhesive Dots. There are four colors and I chose the pinkish one. (That is a technical term:)
