Create With Stamping Friends-Inspiration Monday 370

Hearts, Hearts and More Hearts!

Welcome to our Create With Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges.  This week’s inspiration challenge is this photo:

I used the Country Woods Designer Paper to depict the wooden bowl and then created my own striped hearts and I’ll show you how!

Before I show you the steps, here are a few more photos of the hearts:
