Dangling Hearts Bendi Card - Moi & Toi









Yogi here today and since we're getting close to Valentine's Day, thought I'd do something with "Hearts" BIG GRIN

I'm using an A Way With Words die from Elizabeth Craft Designs "Calligraphic Elements 2" also available on Quietfire Design HERE

Also using a couple of digital files from Suzanne available on the Silhouette onLine store - click on either image to purchase.

  And using a sentiment  stamp from Quietfire Design
("Calligraphic Love Bits" 6pce set); 


Opened the "Dangling Hearts Bendi Card" in Silhouette Studio, ungrouped them and repositioned and removed some of the pieces, then cut all the elements I needed from white cardstock. While on the mat painted them with Distress Dabber "Spun Sugar". Allowed to dry and then removed them from the mat.

Ran the bendi card piece through my embossing machine using Spellbinders 2 in 1 "Hearts" folder. Hit the high points direct to paper with Distress "Worn Lipstick"

Inked the large open heart with Versamark and embossed with Distress "Worn Lipstick.

The small dangling hearts were inked with the Versamark and embossed with Inkadinkado "Hot Pink" embossing powder twice, adhered together using embossing powder. A small hole punched out to hang it with some deep rose twine.

The Moi/Toi were cut at the size they appeared on my mat. I then cut a shadow layer, inked with the Worn Lipstick and adhered both layers together. Adhered to the large heart. Added a couple punched circles, adhered them, then adhered some pink medium sized half pearls to act as my dots for the "i's"

The ampersand is a die from Suzanne "Calligraphic Elements 2" set,  cut from a purple toned cardstock.

I stamped the "XOXO" onto white cardstock using the Worn Lipstick, and clear embossed. Die cut with Spellbinders oval die set, sponged the edges and adhered to the card with 2 pink diamond brads.

Moi et toi/ Ornamental heart / Heart Spray

Hi Y'all!
Robyn here getting a jump on all things hearts!

On the mat

Inside
***TIPS***
  • These files have teeny tiny lines. Use a double sided adhesive on your card stock before you cut so you don't have to deal with glue. I recommend Stick-it.
  • Press down well on your cut while it is on the mat before removing. Let the stickiness help you  safeguard the fine lines.
  • Take your time! Use a thin spatula to slowly lift the cut off of the mat.  
  • Mat should be just sticky enough to hold the paper. Too sticky and you will never get it off.  

Using the Heart spray card, I created a stencil, and a frame for the
focal heart image.
The shadow box effect enhanced the heart, with out getting too fussy.

The Stencil

Won't you be my Valentine?
