Hi, Stampers! I was recently asked to create a wedding card for a special couple, and I turned to the Friends for Life bundle for my design. I also used some retired Holographic Specialty paper from Stampin’ Up! to add some extra shine to these fun hearts! Here’s my card:
The card started out with a Basic White card base. I then cut and embossed another Basic White panel with the Distressed Tile Embossing Folder to give a little pretty texture. I adhered that to the card base. I then used the hearts die from the Friends for Life bundle with the holographic paper to cut out to hearts – one solid, and one with the pretty leaf cut-outs. These dies are so fun, and have a plethora of possiblilities. Have you seen them? Here is the bundle:
At the bottom right, you can see the two hearts dies I used. I adhered one to the card with adhesive tape and popped the other on with Stampin’ Dimensionals, making sure to keep the cutouts intact. For a different look, you can remove those cutouts. From there, I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from the Sweetly Scripted stamp set and cut it out with the die from the Friends for Life bundle. I added some pretty embellishments called Iridescent Faceted Gems, and I was done. It’s very sparkly and shiny in person – perfect for a wedding!
I hope you enjoyed seeing my project. All the products I used can be found below – just click on one to shop with me!
