Love Dream Live Valentine Card 5

Hi everyone, Sylvia here with another Valentine's style card today.  I have been sorting out my craft room this week and found this inky background, I don't know why it didn't get used as I just love the mix of colours.  It was created using shiny card with alcohol inks and cling film.

The heart was embossed with a 3D embossing folder, coloured with distressed inks and rubbed over with gilding wax.  The heart was fixed over thin Jute twine with sticky foam pads and a sentiment stamped underneath in black ink.

The inky panel was attached to a square of teal card then the panel was attached to a white linen card blank. I cut an aperture from a square of white linen card and fastened it over the inky panel with sticky foam pads.

Materials used:

  • papermilldirect white linen 255gsm and teal plain 240gsm card
  • dies - Sizzix nesting hearts and Marianne stitched basic squares
  • Crafter's Companion 3D embossing folder
  • distress inks and Treasure Gold gilding wax
  • thin Jute twine
