I love...

...THIS Hero Arts digi set. Soooo yummy! I was going to make a card set with a bunch of glittery hearts, but I realized I didn't have a glue pad (at the time) for my pretty glitter, and the embossing pad just wasn't gluey enough. :(

So, I went with a big shabby card, with a tiny amount of glitter that managed to stay on the heart wings...


Stamping on my little handmade posy....

More sentiment-masking. And yes, that tag is supposed to look a little messy. ;)

I also put some Glossy Accents on the tip of the pin after I pushed it through, because my mom hates the idea of the point stabbing someone, lol. ;)

Just wanted to quickly share this as I'll be taking the rest of this week off (till Saturday) from blogging. :)

So enjoy the rest of your week, and have a great day!

  8. Such a super soft and pretty card Clare ;) I'm often scared of using pins on cards myself, so the Glossy Accents sounds like a good tip to try! Thanks ;)

  11. Love your card Clare, but then I always love your cards! Thanks for that little tip on the glossy accents - I've never thought of that, but those pins can be a bit tricky to hide so they don't poke someone!
