I love the shape of this heart, it's a lovely chubby heart, and creates quite a bit of space inside, perhaps enough for a mini poem! I cut one heart "on the fold" so that it was a tent-fold heart card, and then folded the top in half again to create an easel. I then cut another single heart in the same pink card and stuck it to the top to finish the easel shape.
I made a couple and decorated each one differently for a little variety. A few of you will remember that I recently purchased the Nottingham Border die, and have been
They were so quick to make, and can then be stood up on the recipient's desk as a little reminder of your note!
Next, I used another heart, again cut on the fold at the top, and created a little tag that could be tied on a little valentines gift. The image was actually part of a much larger image, but I cut off the big heart that the bear was carrying, and replaced it with a smaller die-cut heart instead. I punched a hole in the corner, and threaded some pretty vintage pink ribbon to create the tag tie.
I've inked around all of my hearts, on all the projects with darker pink ink pad to define the edge.

What a really lovely idea Annette, I'm going to "borrow" that idea and make one for Martin's lunch bag!! xx
You really do have such clever ideas Annette... and how fabulous would it be to find a little note like this in a lunchbox or whatever... GORGEOUS! Love the waste not, want not flower too.. and oooh that little ted tag is perfect!
Hope it's not too wet down there... I just saw Looe on the news (I know that's in a different county).. but I did think of you.

Hi honey, what a stunning little heart notelet this is. When Kendall was you junior school, I used to write little notes for her and pop them into her lunch box. She loved them! This is such a sweet idea. Love the little bear too. Wishing you a fab day. hugs Sharon xx
