February is the month of love, with Valentine's Day falling smack dab in the middle of the month. Get in the spirit by adding hearts to your layouts, which of course can be about anything you love. Scroll down for some loving inspiration.
Hearts, like flowers, are great additions to just about any feminine page. They always seem to work, whether or not they are part of the theme of your page. Cut them out of calico patterned papers and they simply become girly accents.
SnapFix Tip: Create a border around the entire page by mixing a border die, like the heart die shown here, with a few squares of patterned paper and you have just upped the cute factor.
Love is about more than just the person you are romantically involved with. Hearts make great accents on a page about pets, hobbies, friends, interests and family.
SnapFix Tip: Hearts are also good for filling in those little leftover spots on the Grid Paper. Cut them from different colors/patterns of paper and no one will suspect they were an afterthought.
Isn't it wonderful that there is a special shape designated to help us communicate our love? Watch Paije's video to see how can quickly you can create a memory of "lovely things".
In addition to the close up photos you take, remember to take some at a distance to help set the scene. Learn more from Andrea by clicking on the link below.
Wow! This layout was created before dies existed, but you should be able to recreate it using the dies listed above. The center embellishments were cut from the patterned paper and mounted with dimensional foam adhesive. To create the texture behind the hearts, run your square of white cardstock through an
embossing folder and then lightly ink the top with a stamp pad. Then layer hearts on top. Simple, but amazingly beautiful!
