HEART TRIO

                                            HEART TRIO CARD SET

Here is an adorable trio of cards that I crafted for one of my clubs! The inspiration for this card set came from Becca Whitham, who was the designer of the “love note” card. It was a perfect fit for my Stamping 101 class! A great way to showcase the versatility of your stamp sets!!

      

To begin this project, I used a piece of white daisy card stock cut 6”x 12” and created the background paper using first and second generation stamping. I stamped up approximately 2 ¾” up from the bottom.
Once you are satisfied with your stamped design, cut into 3 pieces measuring 5 ¼ by 4.
To create the note paper, I used a piece of lined card stock along with the CM border maker system, and trimmed to 3”x 4”. I then inked around the edges and lightly inked the interior with buttercup ink. As an alternate method, you can use the CTMH Artbooking cartridge and stamp set to create this as well.
Add ribbon and adhere to card base. Adhere note paper to card. Stamp love in  pear. Stamp note onto circle shape that was cut from Artbooking. Embellish!!

Don’t forget to stamp something on your envelope....

                                          

To create the love U card, begin by adhering a piece of pink chevron paper ¾” x 4 to your stamped paper. Add the glitter strip, ¼” x 4”. Stamp love in cotton candy ink along the top of the glitter strip. Add white ribbon. Adhere to card base using pop dots/dimensionals. Cut capital U at 1 ¾ “ out of pink glitter paper and adhere with pop dots/dimensionals.

To create the final card, first cut the doily in half. Adhere to the stamped paper using a piece of washi tape. Add white ribbon, then adhere to card base. Stamp “smile” in pear onto circle piece cut using Artbooking. Ink around the edges. Adhere with a pop dot. Stamp “just because” in pear onto a piece of white card stock cut 3/4” x 4”, dove tail one end, ink edges and adhere using pop dots. Adhere to card base and embellish with gems.
