Paper Pros July Challenge - 30 minute makes

Hi Friends

I am here today with the Paper Pros challenge for July and this time it was my turn to pick a theme and chose "30 minute makes".  Now I am not going to lie, this set some of the ladies in a spin, no way they said.  But lets face it, we can all make fandabbydosey cards with Karens die sets.  But can we strip it back a level and make relatively quick cards?  By ommitting some of the die cutting, and just using the Pivot hearts and decorating with stamps I managed to make a pop up card in a much shorter time, but still packs a WOW when you open it with the pop out hearts.  You should give it a try one day.

Here you can see the inside and the way I very simply decorated the hearts.  With the central piece flat I popped a piece of scrap card behind so I could edge the hearts without catching the back of the card.  I also left the scrap in place whilst I stamped the flowers onto the hearts.

The front was simply stamped with white embossing on Kraft and coloured with pencils.

Here is a bit closer of inside.

Here I will list the items used  below :)
