Created the heart patterned using foam and Sizzix Scallop Heart die. PageMaps NSD challenge us to create stamp from foam and make a project based on the sketch. Here is how I create the heart shaped stamped image:
  1. die cut a heart shape from a foam using Sizzix Scallop Heart die
  2. Embossed the die cut heart foam with Sizzix BG Dotted Flower Ring embossing folder
  3. Inked the foam with TH Spun Sugar distress inkpad.
