Welcome to VC Rocks opening blog hop for 2012! Our theme this month is "Have a Heart!" You have arrived here at stop #11 after looking at the great projects shared by Kym at Artful Imagination. I especially love her vintage card!
First off let me just say--"what was I thinking???" I signed up for this blog hop quite awhile ago and did not look at my calendar because when I saw the theme I had an idea right away of what I wanted to do! Does that mean I got it made ahead of time?? Oh no--I procrastinated and then realized... that this was the same weekend that I was spending the night at school with my class of first graders--6:45 p.m. Friday - 9:30 a.m. Saturday! Yes, I'm a bit crazy, but it's tradition! =-)
So I'm writing this post on Thursday night so I'll get it posted in time...from school. Anyway--on to my project. Since I have few original ideas (maybe someday) I was inspired by a card by Wendy Weixler and combined the idea with a tutorial I saw here to make it into a 3-D card. Here it is:
And here's what it looks like on the inside--that's where the 3-D name comes from
Here's what I used:
Stamp Sets - Pursuit of Happiness, Thank You Kindly
Paper- Summer Smooches dsp, Pacific Point (I needed 12 x 12), Whisper White, Daffodil Delight
Ink - Island Indigo (pad and marker)
Accessories - Heart Framelits, Island Indigo baker's twine, Have a Heart embosslits
Thanks for visiting! Now head on over to check out the wonderful creativity of Mary Jo Price-Williams at Technostamper!
