Ribbon heart framed

As I enjoyed making my union jack from ribbons so much I have been experimenting with other designs. As valentines day is quickly approaching I decided a ribbon heart would be fitting.

As with the union jack I drew the design on some cardboard. I then stuck the background ribbon on first.

As you can see in the picture. I then stuck the ribbon for the heart in the opposite direction. I finished the piece by bordering the heart with ribbon. The get the curved effect I cut halfway into the ribbon so it could overlap its self. 



I will be trying this again soon to make it neater. You can't really see in the picture, but I can see some of my pencil lines on the ribbon!!
