Vintage Heart Stump Die:
To create the base of the card, I used the Vintage Heart Stump Die. I positioned the die over a folded square card base, ensuring the top of the heart slightly extended beyond the fold. After running it through my die-cut machine, this created a heart-shaped card with a hinged top. Next, I die-cut another heart from a separate piece of cardstock, stamped it using the Vintage Heart Stamps with intricate woodgrain details, and heat-embossed it in gold. The golden embossing brings a stunning, rustic elegance, and the shimmer beautifully highlights the wood grain texture, making the heart truly stand out.
Graceful Magnolias Stamps and Dies:
To soften the card, I stamped Graceful Magnolias and die-cut some floral accents on vellum using the Graceful Magnolias set. I then used the same heart die from the Vintage Heart Stump cut out the edge so that they lined up with the heart-shaped edge. These were heat embossed in white for a delicate, airy feel. I love how the white embossing on vellum contrasts with the rich gold of the heart, creating a beautiful balance of bold and soft.
Cheers My Friend Word Dies:
I added bold, striking letters "C + S" using the Cheers My Friend Word Dies for a pop of color and personalization. The vibrant red really stands out against the neutral tones of the rest of the card. I love how customizable this die set is, making it easy to create cards for any occasion.
Sentiment and Embellishments:
and a few small gems to add a touch of sparkle using the Day and Night Gems, pulling the whole design together.
This heart-shaped card is not only unique but also elegant and versatile, perfect for weddings, engagements, or even anniversaries. The combination of gold and white embossing adds a luxurious touch, while the vibrant red initials make the card personal and memorable.
