I Love U!

I saw this card on the Splitcoaststampers' tutorial page
and thought it would make a nice little card to tuck in somewhere for a surprize greeting.



I started with the card base (3 1/2 x 10 1/2)
and scored it @ 3 1/2 & 7.
I cut my letters from the WW cart @ 2 3/4 -
the heart is from the SH cart @ 2 3/4 also.

I then laid them on the base, and traced around the images on the top of the card.
This was cut out by hand.
The edges were inked and it was embossed with the paisley CB folder.


The letters were embossed with the swirls CB folder and the
heart flower with swiss dots.


The "popped" heart was also embossed with swiss dots while
the background was cut from red glitter paper.


A final embellishment with a small gemstone and my project is complete.
It is not exactly like the tutorial, but it was close enough for me!
Hope you like it and TFL!
