MORE Zentangle Heartstrings

• This is my 2nd Zentangle Heartstrings card.
• The 1st card, along with the links to the Heartstrings tutorial I used, is detailed in my previous post found here: http://tracyscraftyadventures.blogspot.com.au/2015/02/zentangle-heartstrings.html
• I used red A4 Canson cardstock folded in half to make the A5 base, with black & white matted layers.
• The Zentangle Hearstrings panel was fussy cut and adhered in place
• The flourishes are Fiskars Swirl Around 1" Limited Edition Lever Punch
• The "Love sentiment" is from the Sizzix Stephanie Barnard Regal Card Stand-Ups Framelits Die Set - I layered 3 together for dimension, adhered perfectly together with Tombow Mono Multi Glue.

Zentangle Heartstrings

My first attempt at Zentangle.

• I created "Heartstrings" using the tutorial by Helen Williams found here: http://tanglepatterns.com/2013/02/how-to-draw-heartstrings.html
• I used a Becky Higgins Project Life Black 05 journaling pen on white Canson cardstock to create my heartstrings, really need to try 03 or even 01 for a more delicate design.
• After struggling with where to cut my panel, my dear husband came up with the wonderful idea to fussy cut them out - LOVE how they turned out!!!
• The sentiment is from the Sizzix Stephanie Barnard Regal Card Stand-Ups Framelits Die Set - I layered 3 together for dimension, adhered perfectly together with Tombow Mono Multi Glue.
• The flourish is the "Ivy Tendrils" die from Poppystamps.
• I used an A4 sheet of black Canson cardstock scored & folded in half to make the card base, the red & white panels are Canson cardstock too.  My card is sitting on some red cardstock with some black hearts scattered beside it ... I've seen it with sequins & thought I would give it a try :)
