I said a while ago that I find stamping difficult, but would give it a go at least once a month …. well the time has come …..
The idea for this card came to me as I was making something else ……. I am terrible for getting side tracked!
The stamp I used was part of a free gift from a craft magazine last year that I hadn’t never even opened until today.
I stamped onto red card with black StazOn ink, which dries really quickly.
I cut out the heart and wrapped thin fuse wire round the top corner. I then took the wire down the back of the heart and fastened a key charm (from a charm bracelet) onto it.
I then stuck it straight onto the card, no mat and layering – I must be sickening for something!
After I finished the card I tried stamping with the StazOn onto mirror card – well impressed – I see another card in the making.
Hi Helen
ReplyDeleteI like the simplicity of this card. There are so many valentines cards out there, I'm edging towards the simplistic and your idea would fit the bill - although I might have to sneek a little bit of cuttlebugging in!!!
Oh - thanks for your visit to the shops earlier - it's saved me a job tee hee x x x
