Triple Heart Easel Card

This is my second Mother’s Day card and for this one I used a Hot off the Press template that I’ve had for a while and only used once or twice.

Mom in Brazilian Portuguese

Using a piece of CS colour Plum Punch and another 2 pieces of CS in different pink hues, I cut the large and smaller bases afterwards scored and folded in the indicated places. I then cut 3 hearts in graduating sizes decorating each piece with some pretty PP and Washi glitter paper. A friend had sent me a gift of some clear vinyl painted gold stickers and I used some of these to decorate the largest heart adding a few bling strips around edges of the main heart and the vinyl gold one. For the glitter heart I added the word mom in Portuguese along with a small strip of flowers to which I added jeweled centers. The smallest heart was decorated with a bit of pp and another 3D sticker. Each layer is designed to hold the previous one in position but I found the largest heart wouldn’t stay down so I improvised a slightly different support which seems to work better. The smallest heart is held up by a foam mounted decorated strip. The card folds flat for mailing but is bulky so requires a bit more postage for sure.

  4. Sometimes I’m too ambitious for my own good. I had fun making this but it took a long time to do. So I did the other intricate one on Thursday – most of the day – and this one yesterday and an hour this afternoon. Thanks to you all for spending time with me today.

    1. So glad you like them all Jan. I was feeling as if my mojo had gone and doing the fiddly cards has helped bring it back. I’ve just finished a CAS card and will upload it soon.
