Valentine Table Center Piece

I made this using Stampin' Up! double sided Designer Series Paper Patterns Stack "Brights" (You can choose any colors you wish to use). 

Cut a 12" x 12" sheet in half.  Put one piece through your Big Shot using the Stampin' Up! BIGZ XL Designer Rosette Die.

Cut out a 4" diameter heart shape in heavy card stock or you can make 2 and glue them together to give the base plenty of support.

Using the large Stampin' Up! Heart Punch, punch out however many hearts you want to put on the back and front of your project.  You can also add smaller hearts if you wish using smaller heart punches.

Fold along the score lines of the rossette piece to make a fan shape.

Using your glue gun, drop a dimes sized glob of hot glue where you determine each end of the fan is going to touch the heart base, then immediately stick the ends of the fan shape into the glue and spread the fan out and hold for at least 1 minute without moving it or letting go of it.

Once the fan rosette is set, you can proceed to decorating it with any embellishments you wish, including hearts, glitter or glitter glue, rhinestones, etc.
