Sketched Hearts


Just a quick post from me today to share my entry in the Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge.

I haven't used my Language of Love stamp set much and I thought this sketch was the perfect opportunity to have a play, I was initially going to use the heart stamp in the centre but it didn't look as good so went with the triangle instead.  The best thing about this stamp set is that every shape matches one of Stampin' Up's punches or Framelits!  Here I actually cut each one by hand (not to bad with all the straight lines) and then layered them onto the punched and die cut shapes so there is a little border of gold showing around the edge.  I punched some hearts to match in with the gold embossed vellum on the background, and added Gold Baker's Twine threaded through three little holes to finish off the card.  I just love how the gold all matches together.  A bit late for Valentines Day, but why wait for a special day to tell someone you love them?

Happy Stamping

  1. You chose well to use the triangle and the little heart as the center banner piece. What a cute little card you made. I think it was sheer brilliance to use the gold heart background paper to tie every thing together. Thanks for playing along with us over at Sketch Frenzy Friday.
