Holla!!  It's January.  I feel like time is going SO fast!!  It'll be summer before we know it!  Anyway...  Are you loving the new Mini Catalog?

GORGEOUS.

Hi.  Hello.  I am in love with the new wooden embellishments AND the word bubble framelits.
L.O.V.E.

 
 

I created these adorable hearts using my Silhouette Cameo.  Here is how you can create the same thing:

1. Create a rectangle that will be the size you'd like your top layer to be cut.  Mine is 3.25" x 4.75".
2. Import the heart from the Bookstagram MDS download into your program.
3. Resize your heart to be .25" wide.
4. Open your trace window
5. Click Select Trace Area
6. Then click Trace Outer Edge
   You should have a red outline around your heart.
   You can move your black heart out of the way.
7.  Click the red outline of the heart and create several duplicates.  I just placed them randomly all over the square.  I made sure to have some hearts go outside of the square too.
8. Click the Select arrow on your toolbar.
9. Draw a square around your rectangle with hearts in it.
10. Your rectangle and all the hearts should have outlines around them.
11. Click the Open the Modify Window.
12. Click the Subtract option.
13. Your screen should look like this:
14. Now you can cut your project.

If you saw this post earlier you're probably thinking,"Wasn't there some twine on this card that looked like a guppy fish?"  Yes, there was, but I had to fix it.  I just couldn't stand it. Yay!

Are you wondering what I did with all the cute little hearts that were cut out?  They're on the inside of the card, of course.
