Wishing You A Happy Heart!

WOW, I almost didn't get this posted in time. It was such a busy day today!!! I hate those days that the minute your feet hit the floor in the morning you're constantly on the move!!! And today was exactly like that. A million things to do and not enough time in the day to do them all. I still have a few things left to do but I'm such a night owl that I know I will get them done before I go to bed.

I decided to take a few minutes out and make another Valentine's Day card. For this card I used the Stampin' Up! "A Happy Heart" set. There are a few other stamps in that set. I am going to take some of them out and use them too!!! Though I REALLY do LOVE this heart dandelion!!

My card stock is Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette . I used a few scraps of the Candy Lane decorative paper. It's such pretty and fun paper. I know I'm going to have to order another package of it when it's available.

The hearts were done using the new 3 Heart punch. I just took the white gel pen and drew hearts within the hearts. The two smaller ones I put on foam hearts. Yup, the leftover ones from making ALL of those technique pages. I told you that you were going to see these foambacked hearts a lot!!! When you get sick of seeing them you can tell me! LOL

For the image I just used the "Direct to Rubber" technique where I just colored on the rubber with markers. When I was done I huffed on it. The steam from my breath moistens the ink and it's ready to use. Then I just made layers and put everything on the Pink Pirouette that I ran through the Dotted Swiss Cuttlebug folder. I tied some Pink Pirouette 5/8" ribbon around the top layer and then I taped the pieces in place. It's ok. Not one of my better pieces of work but for a quick card it's ok!!

Thank you for stopping by,
Wanda
