Build A Heart

Hi friends Debbie here today! Sharing the Build-a-Heart Die! For Christmas I bought myself a new Anna Griffin Empress with large plates, and it is wonderful!  Also using my color cube and grabbed colors that I loved for Valentines- threes shades of pink, lavender and glossy white card stocks. Once they were cut I put the into a Craft Stax for storage. That way when I needed more I was all set.

I started off with the XOXO Pierced Plate Die, and ran it through my P6 with the rubber mat to make a more pillow look rather than a pierce. Trim it down on all sides by 1/8th inch. and mat with the brighter pink.

Building the hearts I wanted and popped them up with 3D foam.

Stamp and White heat embossed the sentiment from the Upright: Valentine Greetings. Die cut it out with the Sentiment Strips Die.

Next was the bow from Valentine Bucket Addition Die Set that I needed to cover the two die cuts of the sentiment when they are overlapped. Place in the center the white heart from the Strawberry Valentine Clay Confetti, popped up with foam tape.

From my stash I have a light pink and white twine I wrapped around the panel three times and tied in a bow. Attach the hearts on and adhere to a portrait top fold card base.

Thanks for stopping by and stay crafty my friends!
