Step by Step
1
Leave the triangle card folded. Ink up the Anita’s rubber stamp in white pigment ink and stamp onto the front of a metallic blue triangle card blank. Emboss in white embossing powder. Allow to cool. Repeat on the other two sides of the triangle card.
2
Place low tack masking tape a few centimetres up from the base of the card. Rub pigment ink below the line of the tape. Remove tape and shake over white embossing powder. Heat until molten and slightly raised. Taking care not to burn this area or the original embossed pattern. Repeat on all sides of the card. Allow to cool. Stand the card up and gently apply pigment ink to the edges of the triangle card and emboss in white.
3
Apply white with gold edge sticky ribbon along the edge of the embossed base area. Add the ‘Romance’ handmade sticker to the central one

For the aperture, draw around the centre of the oval paper shape on the inside, front panel of the card and cut out fractionally larger than the guideline using a craft knife and cutting mat.
Rub over the front of the paper oval from the Papermania shapes caddy with white pigment ink. Ensure to work on a protected working surface! Emboss the shape using white embossing powder. Allow to cool.
5
Cut a piece of clear nylon thread the same length as the height of the oval. Attach the gold swirls heart dome sticker to the centre and place another sticky sides together to form a sealed heart with the nylon running through. Repeat above and below with smaller gold heart dome stickers.

Attach the ends of the thread to the reverse of the embossed oval with a little tape and attach the oval around the aperture with Stick It! Glue.
