Sunday Fun Day All About Hearts

Hello Stamping Friends,

Welcome to another week of Sunday Fun Day with the Sisters in Stamping. This week we are sharing some projects that focus all about hearts. You won't want to miss these so make sure you visit the Sisters in Stamping blog.

I made a home décor piece using a wooden heart that I found at a local dollar store.  I was determined to use my Stampin' Up! products to make it into a beautiful piece that anyone would be happy to display at home or work.

So, I'm sharing it a bit backwards by showing you the finished project first, but I don't care. (HAHA)  It's too pretty not to share it first. It looks very intricate, but honestly it didn't take too much time to create once I got started. 

The above picture is what I started with. When I set it in front of me, I had no idea what I wanted to do, but once I got started I just kept going and adding more layers until I thought it was just right.  I turned the heart upside down and traced it onto four of the designs in the  Sweet Talk 12x12 Designer Series Paper (one slate per design so I had four different designs on the front of the heart). I cut and attached each of the patterned paper pieces using the "green glue" as I call it. 

The next few pictures are just close-ups of each letter that spells out "LOVE." One letter per slate. Notice the layers behind each letter. You know I think the more layers the better. 

Each of the scallop circles is stamped with hearts from the Sweet Conversations stamp set. Two of the scallops were stamped with solid hearts and two of them were stamped with outline hearts.

I also used the sprig punch to put a little green behind each of the heart letters.

I used the Bouquet of Love Hybrid Embossing folder for the embossed larger and small hearts. Watch for another project before Valentine's Day that I made using the "stencil" or "scrap" from the heart. No waste in stamping.

I hope you like this project and it inspires you go check out your local dollar store to see what things you can alter to make into a beautiful décor piece for your home or to gift.
