Angel Rivera | Rainbow Hearts Aglow

Hello and Welcome to Day 2 of our Blog Blitz!  What’s a blog blitz?  Well, we’ve set aside a few days on the blog to show you projects created with the new release and have a prize for you on each post.  Let’s get started!

My card features the Hearts Aglow die.  Here’s a close up for you.

Here’s where I started.  I used some water-based markers and an aqua brush to create a rainbow background, shown here.  Once I had lightly blended the colors, I cut out the hearts.  {I’ll be using the negative space of the die in a future card, so stay tuned!}

I then cut used the same Hearts Aglow die on a card base {available in the Birch Press Design store!}.  I then adhered some card stock to the inside of the card so that I had something to adhere the hearts to.

I decided that I wanted some of the hearts to stick out rather than just sit inside the die flat, so I used a few of the hearts from the card base and adhered those first, before adding the rainbow hearts.

And voila!  I love that a few of the hearts are raised, just gives it that little extra bit of dimension.

I chose to not add a sentiment because I feel this card could be used for a few occasions.  🙂
