hearts, hearts and more hearts (SSS, CFC, CTD)


Howdy folks.  Stumbled upon this photo over at CardMaker which I love for two reasons.  Hearts are probably my second favorite graphic shape, after circles.  And I love bokeh.


Had to make a bokeh heart card.


Started with  the Tim Holtz Bird on a Branch die.  Minused the bird and half the branch.  Decided where I wanted the branch and then generation stamped the bokeh-y hearts to mimic the string of heart lights in my inspiration photo.

Didn't want to take away from the image with a sentiment so I used a new-to-me-but-age-old die to cut "thanks" from vellum.  Stitched it on with some pink thread and voila!

Cuz heart challenges are the rage at present, I'm playing at:
Simon Says Stamp - Have a Heart
CASual Fridays - #89 Love Song (cuz Love is in the Air everywhere I look around ;)
Color Throwdown - #228

Hope you're having a good weekend - not buried under snow.  We continue to get snow showers here.  Just enough to make the ground white.  Love it.


Supplies for thanks:
Paper: cardbase Buttinette, CS American Crafts, vellum gray CS Ursus
Stamps: Paper Smooches
Ink : Distress Ink
Tools: branch die Sizzix, sentiment die Provo Craft, sewing machine
Other: thread
