Love & Affection

My plan for this card changed a bit as I created it.  It is basically an inlaid die cutting project with two Night of Navy thinlit hearts under the Washi Tape heart.  I had intended to stack the thinlit heart shapes directly on top of each other.  In the end, I liked the effect of of fanning them out so that the Washi Tape didn’t line up exactly.

Here’s a picture taken at about the halfway point of my process – it looks like a typical inlaid die cut:

To get to this point, I took a 3 3/4″ x 5″ piece of Whisper White cardstock and I added Washi Tape to the left side.  I used the heart from the Sunshine Wishes thinlits to cut through the Whisper White and Washi Tape, making sure to save the heart piece and the inside of the heart.  I also cut two Night of Navy hearts.

I attached the Whisper White mat to a 4″ x 5 1/4″ Night of Navy mat, saving the heart and its center for later.  I used the Fine Tip Glue Pen to attach one of the Night of Navy hearts into the opening.  Then I attached the Washi Tape-covered center of the heart.  The above picture was taken at this stage.

To finish, I simply added the second Night of Navy heart, the Washi Tape-covered heart, and the greeting and flower elements.  This is simpler than it looks, and fun!
