Cocoa's Heart

Hi everyone and Happy Valentine's Day! I have a card to share with you today that has a love theme but can be used for occasions other than Valentine's day. As a matter of fact, I think I am going to give it to my husband for our anniversary.

 

I used the Cocoa's heart set and colored the image with copics. I cut out the heads and popped them up with foam tape and paper pieced the heart.

Here is a close up view of the image

 

I also decorated the inside of the card as well

 

Supplies: stamps- Cocoa's Heart and Bottom of my Heart (inside) 
Authentique patterned paper 
Accessories- buttons, twine, stickles 
Copics- W00, W1, W3, W5, W7, W9, R000, R00, R02

Glad you could stop by, have a wonderful day!
