Inkspirational Challenge - Dip

Here's my DT project for the 'Dip' challenge at Inkspirational .

The heart was made by dipping a cardboard heart into white embossing enamel in a melt pot. After it was set and cooled (well, several weeks later, actually!) I dipped it into glue and then again into glitter. The heart-rate monitor thingy was traced from a graphic I found online and cut on the Silhouette Cameo. I stamped 'lots of love' and added texture with an embossing folder.

I hope you'll come over to Inkspirational and see what our fabulous DT have made, and enter your own project.

Very inspired design and I love the idea of a dipped heart! I don't know why but after reading your text I feel like eating some cookies that are dipped in chocolate. :)

Your glittery dipped heart makes mine pitter-patter! Gorgeous! Pairing it with the heart-beat line: only ingenious! Love this!

Fabulously tactile, Marina. I love the dimension from the enamel heart and the embossed background. Was great to meet you and spend the weekend with our wonderful group last weekend :)

Oooh! I'm loving the 'dipped' effect to that heart and your fun and classy CAS design Marina. Great take on our tactile challenge too. It was lovely to meet you IRL at the weekend and can't believe how quickly the time went by ... we were obviously enjoying ourselves to the MAX! Thanks for sharing and playing along at Less is More this week.
