Good morning friends!! Ok...yesterday I showed you a card I created using Autumn Leave's Stampology (you can scroll down the page if you want to learn more about this card). That was the first time that stamp set saw ink. The little house with the heart in the middle is just darling. I realized that that card I made was quite masculine, so I think I will save it for my DH.
Today I am going to show you how I created the heart out of designer paper. I just thought the house needed a little more color and interest.
1. I started by stamping my image on white cardstock. I chose to use StazOn black ink because it gave an even coverage. Then I cut out the image.
2. Then I used a black marker (I used Stampin' Up) to just color around the edges of the heart on the stamp.
3. I chose a word on the designer paper and then centered it in the heart. This was easily accomplished because the stamp and block I used was clear. If you happen to have a stamp that is not, you can just use a paper that has random images.
4. I carefully cut out the stamped heart. I didn't want any of the black showing so I made sure I cut out right on the line.
5. I used dimensionals to pop the heart out a bit on the paper.
And this is the finished product. I just had to make a new card, you know:)
Well, thanks for stopping by. See you next time!
