Twofer card challenge - hearts

Yay! I got around to making two cards for the Twofer challenge which this month is "hearts". You know I usually miss it because I keep forgetting it doesn't close right at the end of the month - note to self!

Anyway, I used this die set from Crafters Companion cut from mirri card. For the first card I cut a red border and then added an old SU sentiment embossed in red ink.

For my second card I used my newest die - been on my wish list for ages and so couldn't wait to use it. I felt it looked like an old fashioned frame and then I added the sentiment to make it look like a sampler. This is a new home card. 

 The background paper I wanted to look like wallpaper. Then I added the same dies as from the first card. This time cut from black gloss and red card stock.

Thanks for looking.
