Instructions:
- Cut & score white cardstock 8 x 8 ½ in. This is your card base.
- Cut two (2) pieces of white cardstock 4 x 8.5 in.
- Cut from 1 of these pieces using the largest outer die from the die set CED1251. This will cut the outer frame. Cut the hearts using the heart aperture die from the center of the discarded piece.
- Cut the second piece of cardstock using the second largest frame die. This will be your inner frame. Add double sided tape to the discarded piece.
- Attach the sticky side of the tape covered cardstock to the back of the heart aperture so that the sticky is showing through the opening of the hearts.
- Cover 2 of the hearts with the discarded backing from the tape sheet.
- Add your first glitter colour Mermaid Purple Holographic Glitter Bitz to the sticky heart, burnishing the glitter to adhere to the tape. If you add large glitter flakes and the white cardstock shows through, add some fine glitter (Cerise Pink Shimmer Sparkle Shaker) after to cover any white peeking through.
- Remove the tape backing from the middle heart and burnish the Cerise Pink Shimmer Sparkle Shaker into the tape.
- Remove the tape backing paper from the final sticky heart and burnish the Pink Fizz Bio-degradable Glitter into the tape.
- Using CED1541 cut the swirl love heart from white cardstock. Attach to the center heart with Sticky Specks.
- Attach the heart layer to the top of the base card with glue or tape.
- Use foam strips to attach the inner layer around the hearts.
- Use foam tabs to attach the outer layer to the inner layer.
- Use the second and third largest dies from the CED1250 together to cut a thin frame from the pink cardstock. It will help to temporarily tape the two dies together while cutting. Attach this frame to the inner layer using Sticky Specks or glue.
- Cut the sentiment ‘Follow Your Heart’ from white cardstock and again from pink cardstock.
- Using Sticky Specks, off-set the white sentiment over the pink sentiment so that the pink sentiment is showing through with a shadow effect.
- Attach to the corner of the card with Sticky Specks.
- The hearts that were cut out from the aperture can be used to decorate the inside of your card or for another project.
