The Hero Arts Nesting Hearts Infinity Die Set is fabulous! I used it in several ways for today’s cards. For the first card, I created an inlay background and added a sentiment formed with the Hero Arts Love Stamp & Die Set. The tiny hearts are from the Hero Arts Sun Showers Hearts Die Set.

For the next card, I used the Hero Arts Nesting Hearts Infinity Die Set and an embossing pad to make impressions of the hearts on the front of a notecard. I again used the Hero Arts Love Stamp & Die Set and added Little Things From Lucy’s Cards I Love You Sequins.

For my third card, I created a starburst background using a die from the Hero Arts December My Monthly Hero Kit. Isn’t that cool? So easy to do. Add heat embossed a sentiment from the kit on a heart and added it to the center.

You can do this pop-up technique with many symmetrical dies – just center it on the notecard’s scoreline.
