- 1 patterned paper, 5-3/4" x 5-3/4"
- 1 patterned paper, 5-3/4"W x 2-1/2"H. Save some of this paper to make some flags as embellishments.
- Chipboard
- Various sized heart-shaped dies or punches. One heart should be at least 2"x2" so the sentiment will fit. Cut 5 hearts for card front (optional: cut 2 for inside of card)

- Distress ink applicator and brush
- Flag Die, Banner Die, or Scissors & Paper Trimmer to cut flag embellishments
- Foam squares/dots/tape
- Your favorite adhesive
- Twine: Red, Black, Rust -approximately 20" of each

Instructions:
- Using a stamp block or stamp positioner, stamp your image onto white cardstock.
- Color your image and fussy cut with scissors.
- Using the Vintage Photo and blending brush, ink the edges.
- Die cut hearts out of chipboard.
- Using the Barn Door Distress Ink, swipe the pad over the hearts to achieve a distressed wood look. Using the Vintage Photo Distress Ink, swipe only the edges of the hearts.
- Using a stamp block or stamp positioner, stamp the words "You melt my heart" onto the large heart.
- Using the Vintage Photo and Black Soot Distress Inks, distress the edges of all your patterned paper with a blending tool.
- Adhere the mat and patterned papers onto the card base.
- Add foam squares/dots/tape to the colored image and adhere to the card.
- Assemble and adhere the hearts. Add the twine and tie a knot, then a bow to secure it. Using a flag, banner die, or paper trimmer & scissors, cut a couple of flags to use as embellishments. Add enamel dots.
- Adhere the hearts to the inside of the card on the bottom right corner (this is optional).
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you give this card a try.
