Today I have 3 fun cards for you featuring the new Printmaking Hearts stamps and dies for you! All supplies are linked at the bottom of this post ๐Ÿ™‚ 

Cheiron rainbow hearts 1

The first card I have features the Printmaking Hearts stamped in all the rainbow colors using my Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cubes. I stamped each of the 3 layers of each heart in a different color. Then I added black, white and Gilded Foundry Wax splatter to my hearts then cut them out. I adhered them to a panel of SImon Says Stamp Black cardstock that I had stamped and embossed with the You are the Sweetest sentiment.

For my second card, I went with a different colorway and stamped and embossed the Printmaking Hearts in gold, then stamped them with Salvaged Patina and Lucky Clover Distress Oxides. I added a sentiment strip that I stamped with the Lucky Clover Distress Oxide to match and mounted my hearts onto a panel of Audrey Blue cardstock.

For the final card, I used the Printmaking Hearts dies only, and a panel of Distress Kraft Heavystock that I had painted an abstract pattern onto using the pigments from my Distress Watercolor Pencils. I painted the entire panel then cute the hearts out. i inked the edges of the hearts and popped them up with foam tape and added them to a white panel that was stamped with the You Make My Heart Happy sentment. I added the finished panel to a card cut from Schoolhouse Red Cardstock.
