Inlaid Hearts with Hearts of Elegance Valentine

Welcome to the Crafty Collabortions Share It Sunday Blog Hop. Today we share whatever we’d like to inspire you to make a card or project.

This card has three different hearts from the Hearts of Elegance bundle- nothing special there. BUT, I decided not to layer them as that makes it bulky. I inlaid the hearts INTO each other. It was fun and pretty easy.

The Marbled Elegance paper is so beautiful and I love the sentiment “sending lots of love.” I think that is my favorite one in the stamp set.

Did you notice the background? That is the Starstruck Embossing folder (I think I called it Starcrossed in the video) that you can earn for FREE during Sale-a-bration. It adds a really nice touch to the background.

Here’s a look at the inside of the card.

This Inlaid Hearts card is not difficult to make. I hope you will give it a try.

instructions for the Inlaid heart valentine

Cut a Pretty in Pink card base 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and score at 4 1/4″
Use the Starstruck Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of Basic White cut 5 1/4″ x 4″.
Adhere to the front of the card base.
Die cut the largest stitched heart from Melon Mambo card stock.
Die cut the second largest plain heart from the Marbled Elegance patterned paper. Keep that die handy.
Die cut the leafy heart from Pretty in Pink card stock. Hang on to that die, too.
Lay out your hearts on your card front (but do not adhere) as you’d like them.
Then replace the marbled heart with the corresponding die. Run the large Melon Mambo heart through your Cut & Emboss machine with the die in place.
Remove the cut out piece of Melon Mambo and replace with the marbled heart. Turn this over and use clear tape to hold the hearts together.
Return to right side up and place the leafy die where you’d like to cut that heart. Die cut it.
Replace the pieces cut out/off- with the pink heart. Be sure to replace the pointy piece of the Melon Mambo heart that got cut off, too. Turn over and tape all these pieces in place.
Pop the three hearts up on dimensionals on the front of your card.
Stamp your sentiment on a Basic White scrap in Melon Mambo and die cut with the second smallest Countryside Corners dies.
Adhere to the front.
On a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of Basic White, stamp Happy Valentine’s Day in Melon Mambo ink. Then Stamp the leafy heart in the lower left corner.
Adhere to the inside.
Add three gold Low Profile dots on the front of the card.

Here’s a replay of my FaceBook Live which goes through how to make this card and shows you a second card made like this – but NOT A VALENTINE!
