I decided to stamp the image from the Piece of My Heart set on Shimmery White cardstock. I love colouring on this paper because it has a lovely surface and also allows a soft shimmer to show through the colours. The results are really very satisfying. After stamping the image, I used a stitched square die to cut it out, making sure I had a skinny border on two sides of the remaining cardstock.
I used my alcohol Stampin' Blends to colour the adorable little hedgehogs and that heart they share, adding a bit of sky and ground. Then I added foam adhesive strips to the back.
I used a base of Heavy Whisper White, added a piece of Real Red cardstock and then added the negative piece of Shimmery White left from cutting out the image. I carefully lined up the stitched square with the image and attached it to the spot from which I had cut it. Because of the foam adhesive strips, you can see a bit of red border underneath.
As you can see, I also added a scattering of red foil hearts above the die-cut.
