Love
Hello bloggers! I started this sparkly creation by cutting the Heart Background in white. I glued a piece of clear acetate to the back of it. I decided to use an assortment of jewel tone glitters and I started with the darkest colour first and worked towards the lighter colours. I added glue randomly to the acetate where I wanted the glitters, then sprinkled them on, and tapped off the excess. I worked through all the hearts, covering them with glitter from the back of the background. I set it aside to dry overnight. I cut the Love die in white and used the outer die to create a border around it. I littered all he letters in red, then glued them back into the Love word and added it with mounting foam across the middle of the background. I used the Postage Stamp Rectangle and created a white frame. I added it with mounting foam over the background. The card was completed with whit mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x

A gorgeous sparkly heart filled card to cheer up this miserable gloomy day. It’s very contemporary and would be a great Valentine’s Day card. I think I need to get some acetate and glitters out…
