Yesterday, I shared my video and one of the three beautiful cards I created using the Heart Shaped Bundle. Today, I am excited to share the other two designs with you and highlight just how versatile and stunning this bundle is. This item is an absolute must-have, and during Sale-a-bration, you can earn it for FREE! However … I just heard it’s been marked “Low Inventory”.
The Heart Shaped Stamp Set is a heartfelt and creative tool that lets you send messages of love and gratitude in style. This set features sentiments like “My Thoughts of You,” “Thank You,” and “Hello,” making it perfect for Valentine’s Day, friendships, thank-you notes, or any occasion where a little extra love is needed. The floral heart stamp is beautifully detailed and can stand alone as a focal point or complement your sentiments perfectly. Coordinating dies make it easy to highlight the stamped images, add dimension, and create stunning focal points by layering the delicate heart for an eye-catching finish.
Today’s card is layers of the beautiful Floral Delight Designer Series paper which is covered with cheerful flowers in yellow and a nice textured piece with a checked pattern across them both to give the card a warm and welcoming feel.
The floral heart image was stamped using a Old Olive ink and the die cut heart was done in the same color. I chose the “My Heart Loves Your Heart” sentiment, stamping it in Old Olive making everything coordinate, and tie it all together.
The flower was die cut from the same checkered strip of designer paper to make it pop against the green. To elevate that warm and welcoming fell, I added a few of the new Antique Pearls. This card is perfect for sending heartfelt thoughts to a loved one, especially when paired with a handwritten note inside.
For the last card, I wanted to highlight the coordinating dies to add texture and dimension. I started with the Basic White color for the card base. The intricate heart shape was die-cut in three different colors; Basic White, Silver Foil and Soft Sea Foam, and layered creating a stunning 3D effect.
The background was embossed with the Fern 3-D Embossing Folder to create a soft texture. The “Just Because I Care” sentiment fit was tucked inside the heart, and I heat-embossed it in Silver for a touch of shine. The layered hearts and embossed sentiment creates a simply elegant card brimming with texture.
This beautiful card could easily be sent as a Wedding, Anniversary, Birthday … any occasion really, just by swapping out the sentiment.
The Heart Shaped Bundle is one of the most versatile tools you can add to your crafting collection. Whether you’re making Valentine’s Day cards, thank-you notes, or just sending a simple hello, this bundle has everything you need to create heartfelt, handmade projects. The mix of detailed florals and timeless sentiments ensures you’ll use it over and over again. And the best part? You can earn this bundle for FREE during Sale-a-bration with a qualifying purchase! Don’t miss your chance to own this beautiful set and start creating your own masterpieces. But remember … it’s Low Inventory right now!
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you feel inspired to create something special with the Heart Shaped Bundle.
Are you ready to fall in love with this NEW bundle? Today, I’m showcasing the Heart Shaped Bundle and sharing three simple yet stunning techniques to help you make the most of this versatile set. Whether you’re creating for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or just sending a little love, these ideas will inspire you to use every component of the bundle to its fullest.
Let’s dive into these heartwarming cards!
Card #1: Basic Stamping highlighted with Dies
To kick off our creative journey with the Heart Shaped Bundle, I started with a simple yet impactful basic stamping technique. Using Old Olive ink, I stamped the heart and paired it with one of the beautiful greetings from the bundle. This clean and classic approach lays the foundation for a truly timeless design, and the Old Olive card base ties everything together for a cohesive look.
The circle die comes from the Spotlight on Nature bundle and encircles the stamped images to tie everything together, while the edging adds a beautiful touch of texture.
To add depth and color, I turned to the gorgeous Floral Delight and Timeless Plaid Designer Papers. These patterns work beautifully together, creating a vibrant yet natural background that perfectly highlights the stamped heart and flowers. The mix of texture and plaid strikes a balance between elegance and warmth, making this card ideal for any occasion that calls for a heartfelt touch… change the greeting, change the occasion; Valentines, wedding, new baby and more!
Stay tuned as I layer in more techniques to show you just how versatile this bundle can be! 💖 Let’s take a look at the video where I created 3 card, and tomorrow I’ll bring you the detailed photos of the second 2 cards …
