Heart Cookies

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

We're coming up to the big V day!  I have a couple more heart cards to share.


A week or so ago, Simon Says Stamp offered a free gift of a 3D embossing 
folder and matching die with an order.  I was ready to order and was excited
to get the gift!  I opened it right up and put it to work.

I die cut some of the hearts and put them in the embossing folder to get
the sweet impressions on them.  Gently patting over the top of the embossing
with a pink ink pad brought out the designs.

I placed the hearts on a strip of vellum that was sitting on the table and added 
that to a piece of Neenah that I'd die cut with a retired scalloped border die.
All that was added to a piece of pink that had been embossed with polka dots.

And another to show the whole embossing folder....


This picture doesn't pick up the depth of the embossing.

I die cut from another NBUS die-String of Hearts and a layered heart
from some leftover bits.

Challenges:
NBUS #83 - Never Before Used Schtuff (Embossing folder with heart dies, String of Hearts die)
Time Out Challenge #306 - Pick two from the badge below. (I picked pink, hearts, twine)

Bonnie, you were so smart to snatch that freebie! How wonderful! I think in pink this could be used for a baby card - but I do love the idea of cookies ALWAYS! Your Valentines are going to win hearts!

So glad you took advantage of the freebie, Bonnie, because those hearts are wonderful. You have such a light touch with the ink on the embossing. Me not so much. Thanks for sharing the pink card with us at Time Out.

Two beautiful heart cards Bonnie. I love how you did the pretty white embossed hearts on the vellum & white strip and the pin embossed background. I agree with Michele, it would make a lovely baby card. The second card is pretty with the red hearts and showcasing the whole embossed heart panel. These are sure to thrill the recipients.

Your quick work of using your free gift made a stunning card. I love that scalloped border you added. Red and white always capture the theme of Valentine's and you sure did that too. Happy Valentines Day to you.

Lucky you to snag this freebie! It's just beautiful---pale or intense, it works with both those lovely hues!

Great Valentine's Day cards, they're both sweet as can be!
