Layered hearts for a fun anniversary card!!
I like to feature hearts on anniversary cards and am always looking for new ways to feature them. I had these cut and sitting on my desk from this card from my All Occasion Class. I decided to layer them and then wanted a way to interlock them so I dug through the scraps sitting on my desk and found this little strip which did exactly what I wanted. I decided to layer them onto this dark red colour which I embossed with stars instead of hearts which was my original intent. Somehow, I just could not do the hearts and the stars were calling to me. So hearts it is!! I glued down my hearts and then punched out an opening using my Modern Label punch (SU) just below the bottom of the lowest heart. I glued this large element to a green card front which coordinated with the strip I used. I added the little punched greeting into the opening using 3D foam tape. the card still needed "a bit of something" so I added clear rhinestones to the strip and that was better. After a bit of pondering I also added some to one of the hearts and to the greeting. That was better but it still was calling for more bling so I added dots to the background layer using a clear glitter gel pen!! That was better!!! Always amazing how the muse calls and we are guided!! Therese
