This concept is one that I love creating with over and over again!

Supplies used - Cardstock: American Crafts and Simple Stories; Patterned paper, die cuts, and stickers: Echo Park; Nuvo Dream Drops: Tonic Studios; Embroidery floss: DMC; Computer font: Century Gothic

It consists of cutting a large shape, in the case of this layout a heart, out of a sheet of 12 x 12" cardstock. Then creating a pattern covering another sheet of 12 x 12" cardstock and adhering the shape frame cardstock piece top.

For this layout I used 2 x 2" squares tilted to create diamonds. For some added dimension I used a few layered flowers on top of some squares.

The large heart frame has a chain link stitched border to really enhance and outline the heart shape. Then on the squares I added a stitched border with a high contrast color to highlight the pattern of the squares.
