Good morning! Michelle here with you today to share a new layout featuring an oldie but goodie--the Pie Hearts Cut File--which is probably my favorite and most used cut file from The Cut Shoppe!
What makes this my most used cut file, is that it makes a good embellishment.
Whenever I feel like a project needs a simple and classic
embellishment to help make a focal point, this set of hearts almost
always comes to mind. They are also super versatile. I can enlarge one
and back with patterned paper to make an impact or I can use them in a
smaller sizes to move the eye around the page like I did in this layout:
Now,
the only challenge I have when using these hearts is adhering them. If I
want them flat on my page--no problem--however, I usually want at least
one popping off the page and this requires some sort of foam adhesive.
Most of the time I only have foam squares available, which are too big.
What I do though is simply cut them up with my scissors into small
strips to layer underneith the thin lines of the hearts as you can see
here, in this photo.
How
about you--Do you have any special method for making your cut files
dimensional or do you roll like me and alter foam squares?? Whatever
gets the job done, right? Wishing you a happy day!
