Laightest Designs

Hello everyone! I have been off school this week, but I have been busy with an online class. My other half was on a business trip and my younger kiddo had school. She is off next week. It has given me some time to play around. One of the things I accomplished this week was making a kit I have had sitting around for awhile. Sadly, it is no longer available. The Saying Thanks kit is a non stamping kit.

I love the bright colors, and I always need thank you cards. Do you see that card in the middle? The one with all the hearts? I had to punch out all those hearts. Now, I hate to waste anything, so I thought, I bet I can use those hearts.

I decided to take that sheet with the punched out hearts. I used it as a guide to place the little hearts on designer series paper.

Placing all those hearts back in was a little fiddly. I am not a fan of fiddly tasks. I am happy with the outcome, though, so it was worth it. The Take Your Pick tool was a huge help here!

After gluing all those hearts down, I carefully removed the frame. I then placed the sheet under a large acrylic stamping block. I do this a lot to hold everything down while the glue dries. It ensures everything is nice and flat.

I love how the new panels came out!

Now I could finally finish the cards from the kit. I love them! I am sad this is a discontinued kit, but Stampin’ Up! is releasing two new kits every month. There are some beautiful ones out right now!

Look at the two cute kits above! Click on the images to check out these kits on my website. The flowers are cute for Mother’s Day.

Here are the extra cards I made with those leftover hearts.

Pretty darn cute!

Hope you enjoyed. Happy crafting.
