Valentine's Card Series 2015 No. 7

Hello Everyone,

I have another card to share with you guys. I really enjoyed making this card and I think it turned out nicely.

I used some cardstock from The Papermill and scored it with my Martha Stewart 12" score board. I absolutely love this score board. Scoring cards without it is possible but a score board is so much easier. If you are wondering whether to get one or not how about trying a cheaper version and if you use it every time to score a card like I do now then you can get yourself a good quality score board and tool.

I used my big shot machine to cut out a circle in the lower right corner of my card stock. I stamped two hearts from Papersmooches Zoo Crew stamp set and cut them out with scissors. I got my Xmas red Stickles and covered the hearts with it to make it red and sparkly. After the stickles dried I got some embroidery thread to do inbetween the two hearts then glued the hearts and thread together. I would definitely wait until the Stickles dry properly before doing anything else to the hearts or you'll get Stickles everywhere. Trust me I learnt that the hard way. Not a pretty sight cleaning dry Stickles from your desk.

I cut out a circle border from backing paper and stuck the edges of the thread to it.I stuck the border to the circle hole. When you open the card you's still see the heart in the corner. The border makes the card look tidier and gives it a clean finish.

For the sentiment I stamped Love using a stamp from Crafty impressions Star Greetings. I wrote the rest in my own hand writing with memento duo pen. I really should work on my own handwriting.

I cut out the sentiment strip and put it in the centre of the card and cut off the excess. In the top left corner I put three gems from biggest to smallest. The last thing I did was go around the edges with a red gel pen.

That's the card for today I hope you like it. Thank you so much for stopping by today feel free to leave a comment below I would love to hear from you guys.

Love
