Hearts for Mother's Day....

I think I am having a mild addiction to honeycomb paper Lol...  Here are my latest projects.  I've made each heart shape using mount board.  I only have a few colours of honeycombe paper but I still enjoyed finding papers etc to look nice with them.  I made my own template for the hearts but used a die to cut the honeycombe hearts.. each one uses only half a heart so the paper goes a long way.  I made my own template for the stands too although you can get some really fancy dies, maybe one day I will invest in one...

 This is anaglypta wallpaper that I have inked up with Tim Holtz Squeezed Lemonade ink.. I used pressed Honesty seed heads with some small yellow daisies and the blue petals are Nigella. I put acetate over the heart before I stuck the honeycombe heart on. The little fairy I've had for years so it was really lovely to find her somewhere to live..Lol  .... with the honeycomb heart open below

 This is papermania card, I love the yellow roses.  I inked the edges and added a few punched out buterflies.

 ..and here's the honeycomb heart opened up

 .. More Papermania card is on this one I love the bright yellow with it..
 ..and opened up
 No honeycomb paper on this one Lol... I had to do one with Anna Griffin roses.. the vase is part of a teapot card...I love the fresh spring colours.
 This heart is covered with some gorgeous wallpaper.. the black is velvet flock! I added gems all around the outside and a few acetate butterflies with foil on the backs.
 ..and here it is opened
Thank you for visiting today.. I hope I've inspired some of you to play with some honeycomb paper..
See you soon..
Hugs

  1. Hello Sylvie.
    I just wanted to say thank you for the lovely comment you left on my blog. Your stamps are beautiful, and I really enjoyed making the card for the JS challenge blog.

    Your heart projects are gorgeous. The honeycombe paper looks fabulous and I love the pretty designs to match.
