I got Heartspeak in December right before it retired. It was a set I really liked in the last catalog but just didn't get around to buying until it came up on the list. Today was the first time I'd pulled it out--actually I had to assemble it before I could make my card
I used Versafine black ink to stamp the main image. I looooove the Versafine inks for watercoloring, *and* you can use them to stamp on the SAMJ imaging sheets and it cleans right off, unlike Stazon or Basic Black. I got a Vintage Sepia Versafine pad that I haven't used yet, and I discovered yesterday that they have eight other colors too. I'm gonna get me the gray, one of the blues, and Imperial Purple Anyway, I just colored in the image with ink pad lids and then used a little background stamp on the two back panels with Whisper White ink. I love that the Short & Sweet sentiments fit in the small oval punch.
