First Card of New Year

Finally have gotten all the christmas decoration put away and cleaning done.  Love Christmas but hate the clean up.  Happy New Year to everyone.  Spent some time playing yesterday getting ideas for the monthly stamp group.  Love the new framelits from Stamping Up.  Used it for several projects.

 This easel card is my first attempt with this technique, it came out better then expected.  The Card is cut using the largest framelit.  The inner heart on the front is cut out using the third largest heart in the set.

After cutting out that heart I lined it with pink pleated satin ribbon so it sticks out through opening.   I then cut two hearts like the one used on the inside using the second heart.

One was used on the base and the other was for the back of the top and stamped the Love on it and attached to back of top piece.

 The love stamp comes from the Outlined Occasions stamp set from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  The Card Stock  and ink color are Cherry Cobbler.  The small hearts are cut out of the red glitter paper.  Haven't decided on the phrase for the inside yet.
