A Nana's heart.....


Creative Cardmaking (Issue 6) has some really fab papers, A4 size , matt finish and nice & thick, and I used them for this card. I used the same layout and mathod of construction as yesterday's card but added a HUGE heart over the ribbon. I cut it from patchwork paper which enforces the sentiment, and also cut the word 'patchwork' for the inside of the card from the same paper. I added a layered flower to the heart, and cut ' A Nana's' from pink card. I passed 'Nana's' through a Xyron X and then glittered each letter. I glittered the 'A' with Cosmic Shimmer glitter glue as I wanted it to be a slightly different shade. The sentiment was raised on foam pads & the inside sentiment was adhered flat. In keeping with the heart theme, I cut a strip of patchwork paper and edged it with a Martha Stewart border punch.
Carts used:
All sentiments- Ashlyn's Alphabet
Scalloped heart & patchwork heart (shift)- Doodlecharms
Hope you are having a great weekend so far!
