The Paper Players’ themed challenge this week gave me the perfect opportunity to pull out the Love Notes Framelits Dies and matching stamp set, Sealed With Love. I’ve been eyeing the edgelit in the framelits dies set and this challenge gave me the push to actually play with it!

Here’s the banner which inspired my card:

The edgelit is super fun – it scores the hearts so that you can make them really 3 dimensional. As I was playing, I realised that I could slide a piece of card stock under part of the heart to really show them off. So I cut a piece of whisper white and put it in place whilst I was playing – it stays so well I almost forgot to glue it in when I was done! I used the Love Notes Framelits Dies to cut a few real red hearts and a few gold foil arrows but decided that more than one heart fought with the edgelit and made the card too “matchy”. So one heart only with a gold arrow on top and one of the beautifully scripted sentiments in real red to finish it off. I usually add glue to the mat rather than the card base so that I’m sure it’s in the right place, but in this case, I added snail to the right hand side of the card base next to the hearts so that it was easier to position the white layer. If you CASE this – and I hope you will – be careful not to put too wide of an insert inside the card or it will show.

Don’t you love the three dimensional edge?
