Hi there!

Welcome to Day 3 of Heart Week 2025!

My heart card today is my entry for the challenges hosted by Simon Says Stamp this week. The theme of Monday’s challenge is ‘bright and cheerful’ and Wednesday’s challenge is  ‘love is in the air’. I think this card fits both! I’m also entering this into a brand new challenge called The Neglected Stuff Challenge. The main image in the card is a coverplate die from Simon Says Stamp called floating hearts. It’s dated 2014 and I think I picked it up in 2015 or 2016 when it was in their sale section. I really thought I had used this die before but I can’t find a card with it on my blog. Maybe I created something before I started this blog back in 2017. In any case, I think that we can all agree it is most definitely neglected, poor thing!

I cut it from some speciality paper by Tonic Studios and adhered it to a layer cut from thicker card. This was a bit fiddly so I think I would adhere the paper to the card first before die cutting if I were to do this again! Anyway, I used foam tape to adhere it to a panel cut from ombre glitter card (also by Tonic). Oh how I love this glitter card! It’s so pretty! I only wish the cardstock dimensions were smaller so I could get the full range of the ombre onto a cardbase. Maybe I should suggest that to Tonic!

I love the texture that the speciality paper has given the little hearts. I also added a few punched dots of glitter card here and there.

The sentiment is from a set by Waffle Flower Crafts.

Thanks for stopping by!
