I have had a lot of celebrations this month

and this is a card I made for my daughter-in-law's

Two rose heart!

Today I had a play with a few of my favourite dies

TWO ROSE HEART

and

SCALLOPED STITCHED NESTING CIRCLES

I started by choosing two papers to work with.

One floral and one plain.

On the plain one I cut part of a circle using my largest circle die.

I adhered the plain paper over the top of the floral.

I coloured the ribbon to match my papers

and added to top of my card.

Using same pen I added some faux stitching.

I cut the Two Rose Heart using the plain paper

and added some matching card to the back to fill in the roses.

I added this to the card but cut away part of the heart as shown above.

I finish the card with  a Love You sentiment and the cute little girl stamp

which was coloured with promarkers.

For my project I used:

Dies from Tutti Designs

Papers - Stampin Up

Card - Stampin Up

Stamp - Hero Arts Sweet Wonderful You
