I'm back for another Makeover Monday.
This week I chose this Valentine from February 2017, which was the first (and I believe only) time I have used these rather expense Birch Press Designs Caprice Heart Layers Die Cuts. When I saw Jennifer Mcguire's video this week on how to turn these layering die cuts into stencils, I figured it was the perfect time to give it a try.
I die cut the three hearts from a scrap of kraft cardstock on my desk, and then die cut one more time to create my mask. Since I intended to cut out the heart, I used the mask for all the layers. I used Jennifer's technique of then cutting out the center of the 4th die to create a white heart frame.
I used three of the inks from the Pink Fresh Heart Beat Quartet - Coral Reef, Passion Fruit and Berrylicious. I couldn't find enamel hearts in my stash to match these colors, so I used a little foam heart sticker in the center and two Eyelet Outlet Pink Hearts at the top.
The sentiment is a die cut from Simon Says Stamp Everyday Words on a Line for another Galentine. And I'm still joining Sam's Use My Stuff Challenge - Love (those sentiment dies were unopened ... and yay for using my heart dies a second time).
