I've decided to play along with a challenge on the new Just Add Ink site; established by, and for, Stampin' Up! demonstrators in Australia and New Zealand. The challenge for this week is to "just add hearts" to a papercraft project. Given that card-making is my true love, a card it has to be.
My stamping friends and regular blog followers will know that I am a little, ah, obsessed with brads. I've been resting the old Build-A-Brads a bit lately, so decided to go all-out on this card! The design on the brads is actually the filigree heart stamp (how beautiful is it?), stamped onto Very Vanilla card and punched out with a 1/2" circle punch. Nicely matched to the main images, don't you think?
Here are the details of the card:
Stamps: I {Heart} Hearts, Sweet Little Sentiments
Card: Riding Hood Red, Very Vanilla
Ink: Riding Hood Red and Chocolate Chip stampin' pads
DSP: Candy Lane
Other: Chocolate Chip 5/8" grosgrain ribbon, Riding Hood Red taffeta ribbon, Build-A-Brads, 1/2" circle punch, edge distresser, stamp-a-ma-jig, paper snips (I cut the hearts out by hand).
Make sure you visit the Just Add Ink blog, and show the girls some love!
This is such a sweet little card. Love it to bits. Thanks for playing at Just Add Ink! x Amanda
