Heart Easel Card

heart-01

I have made this easel card using Crafters Companions new Die sire Embossing folders and dies.

Using the Decorative Heart embossing folder I smeared the emboss side with Versa Magic Ink Pad, inserted my Centura Pearl Cardstock and put in through the Ebosser.

As soon as it had gone through I the wiped the access ink from around the heart in the card and also wiped my folder clean.

Next I sprinkled silver embossing powder over the heart on the  card and using a heat gun I embossed the heart to give a ghost like effect.

Making an easel card in the usual way I matted and layer the heart onto the main body of the card. Using the Die sire Alphabet and Numbers I cut out the letter and numbers for the card to give it that personal touch, in this case I have made the card into a Silver Wedding Anniversary card.

By adding a few embellishments from my crafty stash finishes the card off ready to give away.

    Dawn, I only recently discovered you on my computer and am completely thrilled that I have done so. Your tutorial videos are so well done and incredibly easy to follow that it is a pleasure to craft along with you. So many of the other published videos are inexplicably confusing, thus making it frustrating and nearly impossible to to try and complete a project. Very disappointing.

    Your videos, my dear, are clearly explained and demonstrated in a manner that makes the process seem clear and simple. You do a wonderful job of walking us through your process, enabling your followers to comfortably complete a project and KNOW how we did it!! Excellent, excellent job, Dawn.
    I am looking forward to receiving your posts, learning from you to forge ahead and thereby learn new and wonderful crafting techniques. Thank you.
    Sincerely,
    Barbara
