Only ❤️ Eyes

 Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! Only 1 more week until Valentine's Day! I wanted to make one for hubs that wasn't too squishy..you know how guys are w/ frills & frou-frou stuff. It's also kind of ironic since I have had so much trouble  (& continue to have) w/ my eyes this past half year. I'm sure he'll get the irony. 

I used some eyeglass dies to cut out the 3 pair of glasses on the front, then cut the glasses again out of pink & red.  A plastic sleeve was attached behind the cutouts & I added heart confetti I made using several little heart punches inside the sleeve in the open areas. I used a Fuse tool to seal the sleeve all around the eyeglasses on the back side. Pretty quick & easy! It's also what I refer to as a flat shaker. The cardstock I used was little heavier but it's not elevated above what can be mailed w/ single stamp. 
Here's the inside. For the borders down the sides, I inked one row of the hearts w/ a red maker & stamped it.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!


Supplies:
stamps: DRS Designs - Only Have Eyes  (inside: Loved You Yesterday1 Line Valentine’s DayHeart Drops)
paper:  Staples 110# white, red,  pink, Recollections Heavy white, 
ink:  Memento tuxedo black

What a fun card Julie! So creative! Love how you created the "glass" parts with the hearts. Not quite sure what a fuse tool is, so I'll have to do some research. Love how you did the borders on the inside as well!!
