Cross my heart!


It is time for another challenge over at Retro Rubber Blog Challenge, and in honor of our next holiday let us see your creations that use hearts!


I had a blast making this card that went together very quickly, a clean and simple design using the same stamp in two different ways!



I used Hero Arts “Yes” set from 2014 to stamp the love you heart in a pattern on white cardstock in Brilliance Starlight Silver.  I stamped the image again in Brilliance Rocket Red and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder before I die cut the image.  The Brilliance Rocket Red is inked around the edges of the card base with an Ink Blusher and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  I did one edge at a time to avoid blowing embossing powder all over my table!  I used my trusty Bows-It-All V.2 to tie a double looped bow with a back ribbon to tie to the front of the card.  I think the sheer silver ribbon really adds the right touch to the quick card.  The layers are adhered together with dimensional foam adhesive. 

Thanks for stopping by and do check out the rest of the creations from the Design Team over at Retro Rubber.

  2. I think you're really brave - I'm always too scared to try overall repeat stamping like this, so I really admire what you've done with the silver. The red heart is a real standout too and I agree that the sheer ribbon is a great addition. It's an all-round lovely card.

  3. A very lovely CAS card, Neva, with just the right amount of detail! Your repeat stamping is great and I love the same image in red! Your sheer ribbon bow is divine. It doesn't steal the show but adds sweet texture! Love it!

  4. WOW!! Neva, love how perfectly even and spaced are the hearts on your panel, making one in that fabulous and bright red shade really makes it pop.
    Love the sheer silver ribbon too, it really ties the design beautifully.
    Hugs,
    Maria.

  5. Wowza! I think this card has such elegance! I love the gray with that sheer gray ribbon and just the right pop of color! Are you sure you stamped the bg? Because it looks like its pattern paper. Don't you love that when the repeat stamping looks that good! Fantastic!!

  10. Neva, I am totally CASEing this idea of using the same stamp in a different colour - genius and it looks gorgeous, especially with the coordinating ribbon. Clairex
