Hello Everyone,
Welcome to another edition of my Perfect Combos series. As a colouring addict, I am in love with the new
Pencil Heart die. This time I combined it with some other dies and my favourite colours of cardstocks. Let me guide you through and share some tricks.
First I die cut the
Pencil Heart die from various cardstocks: I love aqua, teal and purple together so I used some scraps from my stash. I also die cut it once from cream cardstock and collected all little pieces in a tray.
Then I die cut the background pencil die 3 times from white cardstock and adhered them together. It gives instant dimension without using 3D adhesives. I love the way it looks from the sides too and it is less fragile this way if you want to mail the card.
I adhered the coloured pencils to the white background, it is like playing puzzles. I enjoyed the process and if you use liquid glue like
Glubert it is a breeze. For the background I die cut the
Quilted Heart Background die from white cardstock and backed it with an aqua one. I adhered the focal panel in the middle.
For the sentiment I die cut the word Colour (included in the Pencil Heart die set) from silver sparkle cardstock and white heat embossed the rest of the sentiment from the
Pandtastic Painters stamp set on thin black cardstock strips. I glued them to the middle of the pencil heart and my card is all finished.
I hope you enjoyed today’s Perfect Combo and will check back later for more inspiration. If you like my cards, please make sure to follow me on

See you soon,
