Hearts

 Hello friends, at Double D we have a new theme and fitting for February it is all
about HEARTS!  We also have a fun and pretty mood board for inspiration!

I was inspired by all the pretty pinks, let alone the hearts.  
I have always loved Valentines Day making it one of my favorite
celebrated days!  There is just something about hearts that well,
get to my heart!

I have to say that the creating of today's card threw me for a loop!
I had a Spellbinders die I purchased when they had one of their warehouse sales
and all along thought it was a 'glimmer' die, so what did I do but glimmer it of course.
Then I tried to figure out how to get the center heart glimmered and lined up
in the center so went to youtube and then realized it wasn't a glimmer die
at all, but one of their small dies of the month 'A Lotta Heart' from Jan 2022.

Once I watched the video it all made sense.  The base of the die cuts totally apart
like a puzzle that you have to piece back together.  I first, as I saw in the video
inked one side of all the pieces with Distress Picked raspberry ink, I love how
it gives such a pretty tone on my pink card stock.  There is also a glimmer set
that coordinates with this die that I was lucky enough to have which enabled me
to die cut the center delicate heart out.  When cutting the background die it also
cuts the hearts in half, so I can back in with half hearts on each piece.
The florals and greens in the center of the big heart are part of the die set.
The sentiment is from The Ton Easy Expressions.  I added a few
Pink Fresh Studio gems.

I would suggest if you have this die set
 to make sure you too watch the video.

Stop in at Double D and see all the pretty hearts from
