It's time for the new sketch at The Sweet Stop, SSS1912, the very first one of the new year...
I actually made this card for my LOVE Theme challenge during our January Release Virtual Stamp Day. If you have a chance, please play along with us, and check out the brand new stamps if you haven't already.
The heart is stamped on clear window sheet and die cut with the matching die. I used StazOn to make sure the ink doesn't rub off... then I run a stitch down in the middle and used the thread to suspend the heart in the die-cut window. Looks awesome IRL.
