Hello, friends! Double D is at it again. A new challenge starts today and this time Diane is asking for hearts. Little hearts, big hearts -- 'tis the month for hearts. See the pretty inspiration board...
... and a prize for a random winner:
I'm still working my way through not-yet-used supplies, and that will go on for a long time. You'd think I was a craft survivalist with the way I've stockpiled. Today it's the cute little envelope with flowers from the Stampendous Mailbox Spring stamp set. The large kraft heart was a spare part. I embossed it with an old folder and tapped all over with a freshly reinked white pigment pad.
The glossy dots are punched cardstock circles with Diamond Glaze added. The die cut sentiment is two layers. I used the packing tape trick on the top layer -- applied clear packing tape to red cardstock, then die cut. Instant glossy cardstock. After I hand cut the stamped envelope and flowers I coated with Versamark and clear embossing powder. Maybe sometime I'll try the packing tape on a hand cut image.
This little 4 3/4" card will be a Valentine for a friend.
My teamies have used their hearts in some clever and beautiful ways. Come along and spread some love with us by sharing your hearts in our Double D Challenge.
Have a happy day!
