Shabby Chic Heart Card

 Hi Everybody,

This lovely card has been created with the largest heart shaped die that I have and it is from the Heart Shaped 6x6 Box 

I have cut this card with the die just overhanging the edge so that it leaves part of the side joined an makes a complete card base.

Using the same die I have cut another panel to add to the front to complete the look.

Then with the next die down and I have cut some handmade paper to fit the front and to this I have added some homemade texture paste through a stencil.

Gold highlights have been added in the form of gold leaves and the little gold corner at the bottom of the heart.

The flowers and other pieces have been hot glued in place  and the dotted with glue. The glass glitter has been sprinkled over the top for extra shine and the finished card is really pretty.

Tomorrow I will be adding a video to share with you how I made this card and we will make the paper to go with it.

The flowers I have used are from Wild Orchid Crafts but they no longer ship to the UK.
 I have however found an alternative that is based in the UK and sells the same kind of flowers and embellishments and is well worth a look.
