Christmas Hearts

 

Just been having another go at this week's Less is More challenge, One Layer-Heart(s), and yes I know I should be in bed but when I get crafting I seem to lose all track of time!! This was a bit of an experiment but I was quite pleased with how it turned out and I hope the ladies will forgive me for not having an awful lot of white space on this particular card, but when I tried it on a larger card it just didn't look right somehow.

I started by drawing a triangle in pencil and, using my stamp-a-ma-jig, I positioned the heart stamp from Tiny Tags and the star from the brand new Petite Pennants stamp set to form the Christmas tree shape. The tub was stamped with a pennant stamp (again from Petite Pennants) which had been masked with a post-it note so the point was cut off and the trunk drawn in with an Early Espresso marker. I chose the sentiment from Heard from the Heart because it fitted in with the heart theme.

Heart(s)

The Week 36 Challenge is Heart(s) but it must be a one layer card and, although I have a very busy weekend, I do hate missing the challenge that the lovely ladies set each week so here is my super quick and easy card. I masked off a card blank to leave a border down the left side and used a stamp from the Confetti set to fill the space with tiny Cherry Cobbler hearts. This is one of the few clear mount sets I have but it makes it so easy to position the hearts to 'fill the spaces' (although in my hurry I'm not too sure I did a brilliant job on this one!). The card is finished with a fitting sentiment for the challenge which comes from Heard from the Heart.

Whatever you are doing this weekend I hope it's a good one - back soon x
