TLC675 = Acetate Inking - use Karen Dunbrook's technique of smooshing by applying the ink with a scrap of acetate
I used quite a small piece of acetate as I wanted to limit where my ink went. I lightly penciled lines on my mixed media cs to indicate where I wanted the ink to go.
I started with the lightest blue, patted it on my craft mat, misted it, picked some up on the acetate, and pounced it between my lines. Then dried with my heat tool and repeated with the medium blue and darker blue.
The hearts are left from the die cut on this card. They are made out of white shimmer cs. I popped them up on foam tape.
I added a sentiment (on a lttle punched label as my attempt to stamp straight onto the card ended up crooked so restamped and punched it out.
The panel is trimmed with a stitched rectangle and taped onto a blue shimmer card base.
In case you're wondering "why a blue Valentine card?", a friend of mine ordered five Valentine cards from me and wanted one to be blue instead of red or pink.
