Gold Bloomin' Heart Valentine Card

  • Blooomin' Love and Blooming Heart Thinlit
  • Reminder:  Watercolor pencils on backorder
  • Only 2 spots remain for Card class this weekend
  • $50 purchases during Sale-a-Bration earns free selection

Bloomin' Heart


Here's a quick card using the Gold foil sheets die cut and the Blooming Heart Thinlit.     



  



This card also uses the Delicate Details stamp from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure to create the lace boarder.  It took a while to figure out how to set it up and it required a bit of masking to line up the top and sides.  The paper is the Falling In Love Designer Series paper and the cardstock is Tip Top Taupe. 






The center of each flower includes a Metallic Enamel Shape.  The ribbon is 5/8" Gold Satin Ribbon.  This card could easily ber used as a Wedding card, by changing the sentiment to "Congratulations" or a wedding sentiment.


Recipe:


Stamps: Bloomin' Love
Ink:  Tip Top Taupe, VersaMark
Paper: Tip Top Taupe,Whisper White, Falling in Love Designer Series Paper
Accessories:  5/8"Gold Satin Ribbon, Metalic Enamel Shapes, Gold Embossing Powder, Embossing Buddy, Heat Tool, Bloomin' Heart Thinlits Dies, Precision Base Plate, Die Brush, Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, Big Shot Platform with adapter for thin dies

    I'm having so much fun with the Up & Away Dies from the Lift me Up stamp set and and dies set.   The dies in the set make it a snap to create a background of multiple colors.
