Hello there! It’s day 5 of my 12 Days of Clarity, so today I’ve used one of the ‘grunge shapes’ stamps from May’s Craft Club. I was inspired by Jane Telford’s card on the club project sheet (using the heart to make a flower) and picked up the colours from Global Design Project to give it a spring feel (which is hopefully not too far away!)

I started by stamping the heart twice with ‘squeezed lemonade’ Distress Oxide onto a small stencil card square, lining the points up with each other. I could then add in two more to complete the flower.

I remembered the little heart stamps in the KISS ‘best wishes flowers’ set – the smallest one was perfect to stamp in ‘saltwater taffy’ Distress Oxide to give my flower a centre. I cut four heart masks from a sticky note, then covered my flower with them and lightly brushed ‘salvaged patina’ around the edges.

After adding one of the ‘occasions’ sentiments, I mounted the topper onto a piece of light blue card and attached it to a 5×5 card blank.

Thanks for dropping in. Hard to believe that 2023 is nearly over, but I’ll be back with one last card for the year tomorrow.
