Today starts the first challenge of many with Heart 2 Heart Challenges featuring Close to My Heart products. With this card I used a standard 5 1/2 x 4" card base, sunflower card stock, chocolate and sweet leaf inks.
Distress the card base edges with chocolate ink. Using a 5 1/4" x 3 3/4" piece of sunflower cardstock I stamped a background image using black ink.
Using a 4 1/2" x 3" piece of colonial white cardstock, scallop the edges and draw black lines around the edge.
Distress a 4 1/4" x 2 3/4" piece of colonial white with chocolate ink. Stamp with the same background stamp, again in black ink and draw black lines around the edges.
Cut out a 3" heart from colonial white and distress with sweet leaf ink. Again, draw black lines around the edges.
Adhere in layers in the same order as instructions above. I used 3D foam squares on the scalloped piece and the heart to give dimension to the card.
Hope everyone enjoys this simple but elegant card that takes 30 minutes to make.
Happy Crafting!
