Project Recipe
Cut cardstock, foil sheets, and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Basic White Thick Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Basic White Cardstock
- 2-1/2" x 4" of tiny hearts falling down across white background design from Most Adored 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper, cut so the hearts are vertical on the vertical rectangle and get thicker towards the bottom
- 2 pieces each 1/2" x 4" from Gold 12" x 12" Foil Sheets
- 2 pieces each 1-3/4" square from Gold 12" x 12" Foil Sheets
- 1-3/4" square of gold marbling on white background design from Most Adored 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper
- 1-3/4" square of tiny gold flowers on stems on white background design from Most Adored 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper
- 1-1/4" square from Gold 12" x 12" Foil Sheets
Rub the Embossing Buddy included in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit over the lower right corner of the horizontal white rectangle.
Mount the "nothing fancy just love" sentiment from the Something Fancy Set on Block B. Ink it up with the VersaMark Ink Pad. Stamp it in the lower right corner of the horizontal white rectangle about 1/2" from the bottom and right edges.
Lay the VersaMark stamped rectangle in the center of the Powder Pal included in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit. Sprinkle on some gold powder from the Metallics Stampin' Emboss Powders so it covers the entire sentiment. Tap off excess powder. Return the excess powder to the container to use again later.
Heat the powder with the Heat Tool on the highest setting until it is completely melted (shiny and smooth).
Tip: Use the Crafting Tweezers included in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit to hold the cardstock while you are heating it so you don't burn your fingers.
Adhere the two thin strips of Gold Foils Sheets to the back of the tiny falling hearts Most Adored Specialty Designer Paper rectangle so about 1/8" of gold shows along the long edges.
Adhere the matted designer paper strip to the left side of the heat embossed white rectangle so the top and bottom edges are even and it is about 1/4" from the left side.
Adhere the heat embossed and layered white rectangle to the front of the Basic White Thick card.
Pick out the large set of 9 connected hearts die from the dies included in the Adoring Hearts Hybrid Embossing Folder. Put it on top of the 2 large gold foil squares on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so each gold foil square is centered under one of the hearts without the foil squares overlapping. Run through the machine.
Pick out both single, open heart dies from the dies included with the Adoring Hearts Hybrid Embossing Folder. Put them on top of the small squares of Most Adored Specialty Designer Paper on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so they are centered over the paper squares with a pleasing design in the open spaces. Make sure the dies and designer paper do NOT overlap. Run through the machine.
Adhere the small designer paper heart cut outs to the centers of the larger gold foil heart cut outs.
Pick out the small group of three connected hearts die from the dies included with the Adoring Hearts Hybrid Embossing Folder. Put it on top of the small gold foil square on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces as needed. KEEP ALL THE PIECES!
WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the matted designer paper hearts and the set of three small connected outline hearts on the upper part of the matted designer paper strip on the card front to figure out placement and spacing.
When happy with the placement and spacing, adhere the pieces in place one at a time. Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the set of three connected outline hearts cut out. Use Stampin' Seal to adhere the marbled heart cut out. Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the floral heart cut out.
Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the three tiny gold foil hearts cut outs around the sentiment as shown.
Tip: Use the putty tip of the Take Your Pick to help you pick up the tiny hearts, add glue to the backs, and adhere them in place.
