While sorting through my unfinished project/snippet box, I found this embossed background I'd done at a friend's house eons ago, along with the big die-cut stitched pink heart and the little strip of hearts dsp, so I decided to put them all together to make a Valentine. The heart-shaped love stamp is by Impression Obsession and fits perfectly on the white die-cut stitched heart, so I layered them for a simple look. I added some little gemstones for fun and that's all there was to it. I love it when I can sort through my snippets box and use things!
I'll share this with the following challenges:
The Snippets Playground #371 - must use snippets
Repeat Impressions DCC F520 - hearts
That's going to do it for me today, but thanks for stopping by and have yourself a great day!

It is a lovely Valentine. Using up the snippets is the best! WTG!
ReplyDeleteYour snippets came together so perfectly for this card. I love the idea of using a strip of dsp for the embellishment. That is a great tip.

Yeay for using snippets!! It's one of my favorite things to do and I keep my little stash right on the desk so I can see what's in there. Your card turned out so pretty; that embossed layer really catches your eye! And you definitely nailed using hearts! Thanks for playing with The House That Stamps Built.
