I made my own heart stencil and mask out of packing foam. It has a texture pattern that resembles wc paper, though I didn't make that connection until after I started my project. I mixed and matched some blue and green gelatos to mimic the colors of this week's color challenge, Bermuda Bay, Basic Gray, and Lucky Limeade and colored in the hearts; I applied silver inka gold on hearts to create light reflection and also finger smudged the edges of the paper. I outlined the hearts with a charcoal pencil. Masked the hearts and stamped swirl background in gray stazon. Stamped splatter and script. I smudged gelatos over script to "dirty" up the area and soften the stark contrast of the black ink. I used a brush to flick the perfect pearls, and added teardrop gems.
