Hearts aren't just for Valentine's Day! ~ The Stamping Attic

I have been waiting a VERY long time to play around with the Meant to Be bundle. And of course, Valentine's Day has come and gone by now! Don't worry though. This bundle can be used for sooo much more than Valentine's Day. These framelits are literally the best thing invented since the stitched rectangle framelits. They are super versatile and each die has so many uses.

I've included a video at the bottom showing you how to make all of the cards featured here.

I really wanted to incorporate watercolor on this card and I think it turned out awesome! I watercolored on a scrap piece of Shimmery White card stock and then cut the two hearts out with the Big Shot. This made it super easy to get a random watercolor effect.

Dimensions: Black card base 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4, Shimmery White card stock ~ 3 3/4 x 4 3/4, Coastal Cabana 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, DSP 4 1/8 x 2

I gave this next card to my husband for Valentine's Day. I went with neutral colors because he's color blind 😆 I really like the color combination of Crumb Cake and Night of Navy. I used one of the Meant to Be framelits to stitch hearts on the Crumb Cake layer and then stamped hearts in Crumb Cake to fill in the blank spaces.

Dimensions: Card base 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4, Night of Navy 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, Crumb Cake 3 7/8 x 5 1/8, Whisper White 4 1/8 x 5 3/8

Ink colors: Night of Navy, Crumb Cake

Additional Supplies: Big Shot, Crumb Cake Classic Weave Ribbon

Stamp sets: Meant to Be, Well Said

Colors

Night of Navy

Crumb Cake

Even though this card uses some traditional Valentine's colors, I think the touch of Daffodil Delight ads a twist to this baby card. The Daffodil Delight Double-Stitched Ribbon is amazing! One side has "X's" and the other side has double dashes of stitching. The detailed flourish of the heart ads a feminine touch. I added some dimension and color to the Melon Mambo layer by running the Melon Mambo ink pad over the paper.

Dimensions: Card base 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4, Daffodil Delight 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, Melon Mambo 3 7/8 x 5 1/8, Whisper White scrap, Flirty Flamingo scrap, Melon Mambo scrap

Ink colors: Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo
