Two Hearts Become One

Good Morning!  I look at the calendar and it says Spring arrives tomorrow.....I step outside and Mother Nature says, No Way.....It's Still Winter!  C'mon!!!

Today I have a little wedding card to share with you, I will probably use it as a gift tag even though it does measure 4" x 4".  This will be entered into the Challenge at PTI, Confetti Cluster Stamping.  It's a fun little technique, here's Lizzie Jones'  VIDEO to show you how!



I used many little stamps from a few of Papertrey Ink sets which include, City Scene, Happy Hexagons, Love And Marriage and Polka Dot Parade #9.   I used many Stampin' Up! inks; Blushing Bride, Daffodil Delight, Pink Pirouette,  Pool Party, So Saffron, Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi.

The only thing I did differently than the video was to cut my shape out from copy paper, using a Spellbinders Heart die.  Then I simply used the negative portion to 'mask' my stamping space out.  Seemed silly to trace the image when I already had what I needed.  Just a little shortcut! 

 
Here are the images I used: 


City Scene 'dots', Happy Hexagons flower, Love And Marriage Hearts and Polka Dot Parade # 9 star.

This is really a FUN way to create an image, the possibilities are endless!  My dear friend Barbara was so clever to create this beauty because she's smart like that!!!

Thanks so much for stopping in, I really do appreciate you doing so!

Enjoy~~

  2. This is so cute! Your edges come out so clean by masking instead of tracing your shape. Great idea!

  4. Beautifully done, Donna! Great idea for a wedding card. I wondered if using a mask would be any easier than tracing. I'll have to try this technique again your way. TFS!

  8. I love that look - such a great way to use all those cute little stamps! You have really nailed the technique here, I love all the pretty colors you chose. I thought about doing the mask thing too - way easier than trying to fit the stamps into the shape perfectly! And yes, this will make a lovely little wedding card!

  10. Great wedding card. Love the pretty, springy colors. Your idea of using a mask make more sense to me. I'd mess the whole thing up trying to erase the trace lines.
