Greetings blog followers and friends. I hope you are having a great weekend. I've been feeling a bit festive today, no idea why but hey, sometimes you just have to go with the flow. Over at Cheery Lynn the challenge is Hearts a Glow. Maybe that got me thinking Christmas. And then there was this lovely paper by Basic Grey that I bought. I thought it was such lovely autumn colours, only to discover on closer inspection the script was Christmas. OK, I can go with that. I decided to make something a bit different and I wanted to try a 3D project so this is it......
I started by cutting 4 Cheery Lynn Love You More hearts from gold mirror card. Then I drew a heart shape to go with it and fussy cut 4 hearts from Basic Grey Jovial Nice double sided paper. Love those yellow tones. I stuck the diecuts onto the hearts and used DI Barn Door to add some extra red inside the diecut. I scored and folded down the centre line.
I added some lace around two of the hearts and then stuck them together to form a 3D shape. Before sticking the fourth piece in place I added some red ribbon, folded over at the top for a hanger and I left a tail hanging down so I could attatch something at the bottom.
I made a small bag from red organza and added a couple of silver metal snowman charms from Korthobby. I have filled my bag with some chocolates.
Here's the whole thing just hanging around. Quite a nice way to hang the Christmas chocolates or maybe some other little gift.
