C001 Stippled Heart

Prepare card by folding 8.5” x 5.5” white cardstock in half – use a bone folder to make a nice flat crease.  Using a shaving brush, lightly stipple the card front with Vivid Garnet ink.  Over stamp with Magenta leaf #09.109.F page 35.  Make sure to stamp off the edges of the card.  Set aside.

Cut burgundy cardstock 3” x 23/4”. Glue to center of card front. Cut gold cardstock 23/4” x 21/2” and glue to the center of the burgundy piece. Cut white cardstock 21/2” x 21/4”. Stipple with Garnet ink and glue on top of the gold piece. Set aside.

Stamp Magenta heart #08.026.1 page 23 on a scrap of white cardstock using Garnet ink. Cut out and mount to center of card. Glue a purchased bow to the top of the heart.

I just happen to still have the card that inspired me by Nicky Manel from an exchange from back in February 2000 (below). Thanks Nicky!

Taught this as a class on February 7, 2001.
