Hello everyone and welcome to another week's experimentation with Martha Stewart's Scroll Heart Deep Edger Punch. This week has been quite a week of discovery. I have been working hard coming up with many designs that i hope you will use in your cards and scrapbook pages too!
Today's card: This card turned out really pretty. I think it makes a lovely wedding card to congratulate the new couple. It looks like a set of gates to me and the key to open the gates of love is hanging on a pretty yellow ribbon. (I chose the yellow ribbon because in the USA it is used to show that we do not forget a loved one when they are far from us.)
I thought about adding the hearts back in but decided not to.
Close up!
In the three images below you can see how I built my card. The far left image is to show you what two of the punched borders (without the hearts) look like. The middle image shows how I placed four of the borders onto my card. The last image shows the card with a mat. (I debated about whether to put in a mat or not because the borders without the mat are just so darn PRETTY all by themselves!)
This is a close up of the borders. I punched each border (two in yellow and two in black). I lined up the two yellow borders as you see in the image below. I know they look like one punched out piece but you are looking at two pieces glued to the mat. (I used glue stick so that I could slide the punched borders around a little bit to get them to line up exactly.)
I started on the left side of my card when I started gluing down the borders.
I like ruffling ribbon tails. I like the delicate and Victorian feel that it gives a card.
I hope that you enjoyed today's card!
Join me this weekend for more Martha surprises! I know that many of you like scrapbooking so....I will ahve a few page designs to share with you using this great punch!
Take care, Lis
