DIY Glitter Enamel Hearts | Tutorial

Hi there, I hope you're having a great weekend!

So here it is finally, my DIY Tutorial for the Glitter Enamel Hearts I used on this card. :-)

Step-by-step Tutorial
1. Punch out or die cut your hearts from white card stock. You can use this and this punch.
2. Color your hearts gold with this amazing gold ink. Use this very handy tool to pick up your little hearts.
3. Take a moment to admire your pretty golden hearts. :-)
4. Add some Wink of Stella for extra sparkle. You can skip this step, because the hearts turn out really beautiful with only the gold ink as well.
5. Apply a thick layer of Glossy Accents to make your hearts shiny and dimensional.
6. Wait for the Glossy Accents to dry. When the hearts are clear, they are done!

White Glitter Enamel Hearts
To make white glitter enamel hearts, skip the gold ink and only add the Wink of Stella to your white hearts. Magic happens when Glossy Accents is applied over the Wink of Stella. The glitter and sparkle is so pretty!

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, and that you try to make some glitter enamel hearts as well! :-) And if you do, I would love to see your projects, so leave me a link or tag me on social media.

Hugs,
Tone

Gold Wedding Card

Hello crafty friends!

The gold wedding card that I mentioned in my Creative Blog Hop post is now finished. I think it's gorgeous, and it has five different gold elements!

To make the gold background, I first used this gold spray on Papertrey Ink's Rustic Cream Cardstock and later stamped the flourishes from this Hero Arts stamp set in this gorgeous gold ink.

I used the same gold ink with this beautiful script background from Hero Arts to make the second layer.

The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink (love that font!) and is heat embossed with this gold embossing powder. To frame the sentiment, I added a layer under it with gold glitter.

Lastly, I embellished the card with gold glitter enamel hearts that I made myself. My next post will be a tutorial on how you can make these hearts yourself, so stay tuned!

Elegant Anniversary Card

Hello hello!

Today's card was for a colleague of mine. He wanted to give his wife a special card for their anniversary, and they both really liked the card I made! :-)

This is a larger card: 5.5 by 8.5 inches (one piece of card stock folded in half). I first stamped and heat embossed the Heart Flourish several times, then stamped the script in white over it and distressed the edges with white. The butterflies are stamped in Dusty Concord Distress Ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. The sentiment is stamped in Versafine Smokey Gray and also clear embossed. Lastly, I added all the pieces to the stamped panel and adhered that to the card front.

Here is a close up for you, so you can see the lovely dimension of the butterflies better.

Thank you so much for visiting! :-)

Have a wonderful day!

Love,
Tone

Wedding Card

Hi there!

Today I'm sharing a wedding card I made for a friend who just got married.

There are three challenges right now about using something new. The Starburst Lace stamp is new for me. I finally got it! It's perfect for wedding cards, I think.
I also tried a new card size. The card is 8.5 by 4.25 inches, so it fits perfectly inside a business envelope.

Tomorrow I have some super exciting news to share with you! Did someone say Giveaway... ;-)

Have a wonderful day, and don't forget to check back tomorrow!

Love,
Tone

Wedding card

This is my second post for today, please scroll down for the first! 

A colleague of mine got married this Friday, and I made this card for the happy couple.

This card is bigger than a standard size card. The background was created by stamping two stamps from the Speckled Ornaments set and the Envelope Pattern in Soft Sand ink. The edges are distressed with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo. The sentiment is stamped in Vintage Photo. I stamped the Fabulous Flourish in VersaMark on the kraft card stock and white embossed. I stamped the Envelope Pattern on the kraft as well for some texture, as well as distressing the edges with Vintage Photo. I matted on a white piece of card stock to match the white embossing, tied a ribbon around and attached to the card with pop dots.
It took a very long time to make, but I'm very happy with how it turned out! :-)
