A French Heart For February
Hello everyone and welcome to February, not sure I like what is happening with the weather at the moment but it's not something we can control so I won't dwell on it.
Today I would like to share a simple card with you using the beautiful French Heart which lends itself to some really easy decoupage.
Firstly I stamped the full image using the Versafine Clair Fantasia, and then just a couple of extra images of the floral part of the stamp for colouring and fussy cutting to use for the decoupaging elements in this card.
For colouring I have used Chromaflow Pencils by Derwent bought for me by my Grandchildren for Christmas and I have to say I am really impressed with them. They are very easy to blend just using a paper stump.
Once coloured I used the Old Paper Distress Oxide just to take away the starkness of the white background.
To mould and shape the leaves and the front floral image use a large ball tool and soft shaping mat, or any fairly firm foam to allow you to give your leaves and floral pieces their rounded shape. Apply to the card using a 3d glue medium of choice or foam pads if you prefer.
As a finishing touch I added some clear glass gems.
Thank you for looking in today
Love Doreen
