Morning all!
With love in the air, I'm back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with a little vintage-inspired number.
If anyone still has Basic Grey papers kicking about in their stash, they are definitely a fun pairing with the elegant fonts and fancy-edged dies offered by The Greetery.
I knew they'd provide the perfect backdrop to the Round About Hearts die.
Papers: Basic Grey - Blush (r)
Stamp: The Greetery - Tagged Elegance
Dies: The Greetery - Tagged Elegance, The Greetery - A2 Stitched Scallops, The Greetery - Crimped Frame, he Greetery - Round About Hearts
So once I had a design in mind, I created my card base using some staple Greetery die sets in my collection: the Crimped Frames and the A2 Stitched Scallops.
I love the crimped texture on these dies, and the largest scallop die is also great for adding a fancy border to paper strips.
Once I'd assembled the Round About Hearts die (cut twice from ivory cardstock and layered up to create the full frame), I cut the inner circle of the die again from the contrasting red floral paper to really make the sentiment pop.
The Tagged Elegance sentiments were originally a winter release, but they contain some useful everyday sentiments and the coordinating outline dies make them even more versatile.
Finally, I added some sparkly sequins for a little pop, and that was the card finished.
Until next time, happy crafting!
