I have been wanting to make a card full of hearts like this one for quite a while. I finally reverse engineered one I found on line to find that I needed fourteen full hearts and four halves. I decided to use a sheet of white cardstock from my stash that I had already started altering with watercolour for my hearts. I added several layers of watercolour in several colours to what was already there - a few marks and some very loose handwriting which I did when I bought a new set of pens and was testing the colours. After it was dry I cut it into 1.75" strips which is what I needed for my heart punch (SU). I alternated the direction of punching to make the most use of the strip. I managed to punch a few halves as well from the scraps. I chose these thirteen hearts and started gluing them down on a layer of light weight green cardstock without really knowing how wide I would need. I glued down all the full hearts leaving a gap where the gold heart would be positioned and then added the half hearts. I set that to press then added the machine stitching after they were dry. I tied the threads on the back and secured them with a small piece of regular tape at each end. I punched the gold heart and then added the scalloped die cut (SU) one behind it. I originally had cut it from white which seemed too stark so I watercoloured the edge green instead. It was better but I would have preferred a deeper colour but that is what I had in my watercolours. I adhered them to each other and mounted them in the opening I had left open. I trimmed the green layer and then mounted this large layer to a yellow card which fit in an envelope from my stash. Glad to have finally made one of these. I have enough hearts from my piece of decorative paper to make another so I am off to make that happen. Therese
