Happy Tuesday! Hope you had a nice weekend. My apologies for not posting the Seasonal Saturday video I had promised you...I didn't finish my project on time this weekend, but hope to work on it during the week and share it with you this coming Saturday. Today I have a basketful of hearts to share with you. Here's what I came up with using Melanie's Basket Blessings set along with Tami's Happy Hearts set.
Since I didn't send out Christmas card this past Christmas, I thought I would send some love via snail mail in February instead! Here's how the card came together.
- Create a standard size (4-1/4" x 5-1/2") top-folding card base and add a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of black card stock to the card front.
- Run the Swiss Dots embossing folder along with a piece of 3-3/4" x 5" piece of white card stock through the Big Shot and adhere it to 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of red card stock by sewing around the edges. Adhere them to the card front.
- Stamp the sentiment from the Happy Hearts set on a piece of patterned paper and cut it out with the pennants die. Add two stitches with some twine and adhere it to the card front.
- Select three large hearts and two small hearts from the Happy Hearts set and stamp them with red and pink ink respectively on a piece of white card stock. Cut them out and set them aside.
- Select the liner you'd like to use along with the basket from the Basket Blessings set. Stamp the liner on a piece of patterned paper and cut it out. Stamp the basket on a piece of white card stock, color it with Copics, and cut it out.
- Adhere hearts behind the basket, a strip of twine around the liner, and a bow and pearl to the middle of the basket.
- Adhere basket to card front with pop dots and with that, you are done!
