Happy Friday!!! It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog. This week, the challenge is: My Heart
Here is my card for your inspiration:
This challenge is the perfect excuse to start making those Valentine's Day cards. My card started with the die cut floral panel in the center of my card. It has been lying on my desk for months, a left over from a previous project. I pulled out an old set from Verve "Text Objects" for the sentiment and also for those fun hearts. I stamped them on patterned paper from the same paper pack as the blue papers and fussy cut them out. I decided to stamp the sentiment on vellum to keep a soft look; white cardstock seemed like it would be too bright. I finished it all off with some pink pearls.Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you will hop over to the Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created.

Stamps: Verve "Text Objects"

What a great reminder that those “leftover” pieces can become something really special! I love how the floral panel took center stage, and stamping the sentiment on vellum was such a perfect choice—it keeps everything soft and elegant without competing with the design. The fussy-cut hearts and pink pearls add just the right amount of sweetness. This is a lovely way to kick off Valentine’s cards!
Hi Heather, what a lovely card. Isn't it amazing what we can make out of leftovers. Some of my sketches for this year have leftovers in my mind when designing them. I love the pastel colours and your lovely sentiment. This is such a pretty card with your heart embellishments and your added pearls. This is a great card and thanks so much for sharing it with us over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and good luck.

This is so soft and pretty and I love the touch of vellum!
This is such a sweet card, Heather! I love how you combined the flowers and the hearts. I have a couple of old Verve stamps that I still like using. I also love how you used a scrap that had been on your desk for a while. It’s always fun when things come together like that and it looks so good. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Word Art Wednesday!
