A Week of Hearts - Day 2

Hello friends

Monday - the start of a busy busy week!
As mentioned I'm off to Birmingham at the weekend for a few nights
and I'm preparing the kits for the trade show, Mum is a star and die cutting furiously too!

As promised another heart theme project today for my Week of Hearts!
A heart card featuring Classic Hearts and a road map.
The hearts create the aperture and also the map die cut -
perfect if you have a special place, perhaps where you met, your first date.
The embossing only at the top of the card is Edgeabilities - Classic Postage Stamp
and the bottom edge is a stamp.

A slightly more manly Valentine's card, but perhaps I should have left off the flowery stamp!

Take care friends - back tomorrow with Tuesday Tip/Technique.

Hi Christine. I love this one, using the map makes it so personal.
I hope you enjoy this week, even though you are going to be very busy, and that all of your travels are trouble free. Take care.

Hi Christine, what a great card, love the way you have used the aperture to show off the map. It's clean, unfussy and suits both male and female recipients. Great choice of papers too. This is one I really must try. Anne x

Absolutely charming! Thanks for the inspiration!

Great idea, Christine, but I think I'd have to be naughty and copy my map - they are too expensive to cut holes in them.

A great idea Christine, very different - one to store away for the future.
Have a good week
