In my next life, I want to have an English accent (or Irish or Scottish, I'm not picky). I enjoy videos so much more when there is an accent other than mine.
Anyway, I really enjoyed this new tutorial and found it very easy and satisfying. I guess the only thing I would caution about is the choice of your stamp...if you care about whether certain parts might be sideways or upside down, then choose something with no direction. I didn't cut apart my vellum so the hearts are different directions but I didn't care about that.
I couldn't decide if I needed to add anything to this card front so I left it alone. The second card I made from another piece of the vellum became a holiday card. That one was a little trickier because I used separate dies and didn't judge my distances quite right but, again, I'm not bothered by that. No 'Hallmarking' happening here.
I used a green ep as an accent around the edges, stamped the sentiments in the evening evergreen, added some stars in silver and doodled a little bit to connect the stars.
Thanks, Sabrina, for doing this technique. I need to try the new techniques when they arrive instead of waiting until the TLC.

That's a beautiful looking stamp - and to me it looks as if it doesn't matter which direction the hearts go in. I do like the way you managed to frame on in the centre window!

This is so pretty, I like the color you chose for your frame. And agreed about accents. That's why I changed the gps voice on my phone to British or Australian male (can't remember which as I did that ages ago), I also named him Nigel!
