Gold/Burgundy Modern Heart

One basic topper design with many colour scheme variations! These toppers are really easy to make on a large scale and so are perfect for wedding stationery. Make matching Wedding, Evening, Order of Service, Thank You cards and even Menus by using these toppers on pearlised card blanks with appropriate wedding banners. If you don’t want to use the idea for wedding cards then they will work very well for Valentine’s cards as well. Pictured here are two finished cards using a couple of the toppers, further down are pictures of 12 variations of the topper.

These are the various items used to make these toppers:

  1. Woodware super duper square punch
  2. Woodware super square punch
  3. Pearlised gold & cream card
  4. Dark Red Handmade Mulberry Paper
  5. Dark Red With Gold Threads Mulberry Tissue Paper
  6. Modern Hearts Burgundy
  7. Modern Hearts Gold
  8. Craft glue and/or Sticky foam pads

Obviously not all of the above items are used on every topper, simply select the card/paper and heart colour of your choice to suit your wedding stationery colour scheme.

Use the super duper square and super square craft punches to punch out backing squares from the card/paper types you have chosen.

Important Tip: If you have chosen Mulberry tissue paper for one or both of your backing layer squares, do not try to punch through it as it is as the punch will not cut through it cleanly and it may tear as it is too thin. Simply place the sheet of Mulberry tissue paper between two sheets of ordinary plain paper like printer paper and then punch through all of the layers for a clean cut.

Once you have punched all of your squares layer the smaller super squares on top of the larger super duper squares and secure them either with craft glue or with sticky foam pads for a raised 3D look.

Stick the heart of the colour of your choice onto the centre of the two squares again using craft glue or sticky foam pads.

Shown below are some suggested colour choices within the dark red, gold and ivory colour scheme that we have chosen here. Click on each picture for a larger view and a description of the card/paper types and all colours used.
