VIDEO: How to make a Tree Heart Card

stampin up valentines day heart carved in tree card

CARD

On today's super sweet "tree heart" card video, I'll show you how to make a heart carved in wood using a masking technique. Believe it, or not, the heart and wood are all one layer. Yet, give the the illusion of depth and layers. Very cool! The heart die comes from the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits, and the You're so Sweet stamp set was made to fit inside perfectly. And the heat embossing is the perfect touch. Like a Valentine heart carved in a tree, or wooden fence. Lots of fun on this video, including my snoring beagle. Don't miss my new giveaway details below. You can also find details on my giveaways on my Specials page. stampin up heart carved in tree valentines day

How stinkin' cute is this card? So adorbs! The chickie is from the Stampin Up Sale-a-Bration Honeycomb Happiness stamp set. I watercolored him live on a Periscope broadcast last night. It was so much fun, thanks to all who tuned in. If you missed the live broadcast, or aren't on Periscope, you can view my replay below and learn how to watercolor.

CARD: You’re in My Thoughts Sympathy from Picture Perfect

GIVEAWAY

Periscope-LogoI'm trying something new, this is my first ever Periscope "Swipe and Share" Giveaway. I kind of made this up, so we'll see how it goes. So far it's been super fun and exciting! I've been learning how to use the new Periscope Live Video app on my iPhone. It's been a lot of fun being able to share a few minutes of my day with you live and be able to interact. Plus, it's live so you never know what's going to happen. For example, while I was broadcasting this giveaway video, my UPS man showed up with packages and jumped right in on the fun! It was hilarious, see the replay video. periscope swipe and share
