I promised you in last week's post
(P.S.....I Love You) that I would share the matching card. I did use the left
over papers that were previously created but the instructions below are for making
new sheets of handmade paper. Remember if you are making these folder hearts
that the paper should be a bit on the thin side. The use of handmade paper adds
a beautiful touch to everything.
Supplies:
- Any
of the Arnold Grummer™ paper making
kits
- Blender, small strainer, cello sponges and soft
towels
- Beacon Quick Grip™ Adhesive, double sided tape
- Scraps of red and white paper (think colored junk
mail, etc.)
- Die: Nellie Snellen Accordion Heart die, Cheerylynn
Happy Valentine’s Day dies
- Spellbinders Grand
Calibur™ Machine
- Swirly hearts embossing folder
- Westcott® Personal paper cutter & scissors
- Scor-Pal™
- A2 white card and envelope (or use the AG envelope
template and make a matching envelope)
Instructions:
- Follow the
direction for paper making found in any of the Arnold Grummer paper making
kits or books to make slurry from the white and red scraps.
- Create one sheet
of white paper and one sheet of red paper. Allow the paper to dry.
- Cut and follow
the direction provided with the heart die to create one each red and white
hearts.
- Cut the words
from red handmade paper. Save the scraps for future projects.
- Emboss the front
of the card.
- Use the Beacon
Quick Grip™ adhesive to attach the two hearts and the words to the front
of the card.
- Add a “love note” and give to your Valentine!
