PPC - Hearts, Hearts & More Hearts

This weeks Paper Playtime challenge is to create a paper project that has hearts or Cupid on it.  Our sponsor for this week is Peachy Keen Stamps.  I LOVE Peachy Keen Stamps!  Not only do they have adorable images they have the best face stamps to go with Cricut cuts.  So head on over to the Paper Playtime blog and submit your project for a chance to win a gift certificate to Peachy Keen Stamps!

My project today is simple but a little time consuming.  The idea for the card came from one of my cousin's cookie designs HERE.  Check out her blog, she has some awesome cookie and cake creations.  She's hilarious to boot too.  :)  One of the things I really like about this card is that the colors aren't V-Day colors, so I can use this for a V-Day card or for a 'Thank you' card or something like that.


My card is a 5"x5" sized card.  I punched out the hearts using the Stampin' Up! small heart punch.  How I put the card together was I glued down the layers, added dimensionals to the back of the hearts and laid them out on the card the way I wanted them placed.  I then picked up each heart one by one, took off the backing of the dimensional and laid it down on the card again.  Once I confirmed the placement of everything I pressed down hard on the hearts to make sure they were glued in place.

Card Recipe:
Stampin' Up! Small Heart punch
Polka Dots Cuttlebug embossing folder
Basic Grey Wisteria Designer paper pad 6"x6"
PTI - Kraft & Cream cardstock

~ Thanks for looking!

Ooooh. I LOVE the colors you used! And your hearts are lined up so nicely. (That was by far the most time consuming part for me!!)
