Adding embossing is a fast, easy way to add some real interest to a plain card front. I used a tiny heart Cuttlebug folder for the card background and a larger heart for the center strip.
I was able to cut 3 of the center strips from one piece of embossed cardstock so I will have multiples of this card.
A Stampin' Up border punch was used on each edge of a 2" strip of blue cardstock and then I added colored brads into the embossed strip.
I didn't have six different colors of brads so I took a Promarker and just colored a white one to make it purple. Shirley, aka Okieladybug uses glue dots on brads then dips them into glitter or embossing powder to customize them for her layouts.
It's a pretty card and it was completed in less than thirty minutes.
