Heart Wreath

Today's project is a one layer card.
Sue-McRae-P1140203

My inspiration came from this card I saw on the blog Print & Pattern.

I wanted to try and make a snowflake card for Christmas but ran out of time so I thought I would adapt the design and use hearts instead.

I'm entering this card for a couple challenges that involve using or doing a "new something".  Simon Says Stamp and A Blog Named Hero both have "New Challenges".  I used a new stamp set from Wplus 9 and some new circle dies to make my masks and it's the first time I've made a heart wreath.

I'm also entering this for CAS-ual Fridays Thank You Challenge.

And on a side note, I noticed that I'm slowly making my way towards 200 followers.  Once I hit 200 I think I'll have a giveaway for all those who take the time to visit my blog and follow me.

Wishing you an inky day!

  13. Wow! This is so striking! Your masking is absolutely perfect, and I love the mix of pinks you used. They are always hard for me, so I'm taking note of the inks you used. :)
