Hi crafters! I started with the Stained Glass mask and taped it to a piece of white card. I used Clear Texture Paste through the mask. While the mask was still in place, I sprinkled Zesty Lime,Beyond Blue and Teal Marine Pixie Sparkles all over the mask. I very lightly spritzed it with water to activate all the powder, then removed the mask. I set it aside to dry overnight. Once dry, I used the Noble Decorative Heart die to cut an aperture in the centre. I added mounting foam to the back to raise it and attached it to another piece of card. I recessed the heart fall away piece into the aperture. I used the Double Stitched Squares and made a white frame to go around the background. I cut the Hugs & Kisses sentiment in black and glued it inside the heart aperture. Using some pixied card made with the same colours, I cut three flowers from the Heart Leaf Flower die set and assembled them and added them to the bottom edge of the frame. I accented the flowers with some white leaves from the same set. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Love the concept but sorry again as not sure on the colour especially as green is my favourite...(I must be a traditionalist when it comes to hearts lol), but I would change the colour so the idea is fab....
