With Valentine's Day coming up, I just had to make a heart shaped card using one of my favorite dies...Stitched Primitive Heart Dies from PTI.
I die cut the heart from Real Red cardstock and then stitched around the heart using white crochet thread. Next I added the floral spray and sentiment using the Pine Blossom stamp set from The Greetery. I sprayed the card within an inch of it's life with Sheer Shimmer Sparkle Spritz and then added a few clear gems. Here's a closer up to see all the sparkle:
And it sparkles even more in real life!! I die cut another heart in white and then scored it at a half inch from the top and then adhered it to the red heart at the very top so you can open the card like a top fold card.
Here you can see just a bit of the bottom layer of the card. My mom loves bright colors, so this card will be going to her for Valentine's Day!
