Hearts, Hearts, Hearts (continued from Sneak Peak)

Hi there, I was teasing you a few weeks ago (maybe I should say months ago) with a sneak peak.  Seen this on other blogs, and 
thought I would do the same.......

......... why not?


Well I am back today to let you know what I have been up to!
One of my friends was getting married, she wanted to make her own wedding stationery, but after purchasing the card, ribbon, gems etc I had an SOS phone call.  She had handcut out a heart - but didn't feel it was good enough to stick on front of the invites.  I had to agree with her, she wanted to know how I cut hearts.  So I volunteered to rescue her, by agreeing to cut, print and fold, as she still wanted to be the Bride that made the invitations.

My job - Cut 200 hearts of each size, (so there was 600 hearts)
print the inserts
and cut/fold card to size.

And now....

... a guest designer.....

Mrs K Sim.... aka the Bride....



What do you think?
For someone who has never made cards - she has done a good job!


So, once I was finished, there was a few offcuts
and below is a picture I made for the Happy Couple.

I only have a photo of the end result - before it was framed!!


ingredients:  4 different embossing folders,
 computer for wording,
 flower punch,
 butterfly punch
 1 gem
