StampinByHannah Make It Monday Fun Heart Happiness Card
This week I have a whole week of Love themed projects and a whole heap of Valentines inspiration. Today’s card is one you might recognise from Saturday, but I loved it so much that I just HAD to make a video!
I can’t decide which is my favourite version of this card; the Night of Navy and Gold, or this Fresh Fig and Silver (I am a purple and silver girl at heart!). My favourite part of this card is the Glimmer paper Amazing! I am in LOVE with this die so much… It’s taken from the Celebrate You Thinlits dies, which you can find as part of Sale-a-bration. Have you checked out the Sale-a-bration goodies yet? They are totally awesome! There are two tiers of products this year; Level 1 items can be chosen as your Free gift when you place a £45 order, while Level 2 items (which is what this die is) can be picked as your Free gift when you place a £90 order.
There is a fair bit of Heat Embossing on this card. I will admit I have a bit of a heat embossing addiction at the moment (Did you see my January Facebook Live… ALL the cards had Heat Embossing!). This is one of those WOW techniques for me, I just can’t help be totally memorised by watching a dull looking powder turn into shine-y loveliness! I do have a couple of Heat Embossing top tips:
- Use your Embossing Buddy! – This is one of those items that you never buy because pretty stamps take priority right?! but seriously, this thing is amazing… rub it across your card stock before you start, and it stops the powder sticking where it shouldn’t
- Take your Embossing Powders out of the tiny pots! – I store my Embossing Powders in larger tubs, it stops me making such a mess!
- Get your Heat Tool good and hot before you start trying to melt your powders … it stops your card stock warping quite so much
Ok, so that is my card for today. I have a super cute card for you tomorrow, so please do check back! Oh, and have you signed up for my emails yet…. I have a fabulous card for my subscribers today too!
