These are not your normal Valentine's Day colors, but I could not resist using this beautiful Alcohol Ink background I made using the Smooshed on foil technique. is Loll's video on Alcohol Inks with Yupo Paper. I followed Loll's steps exactly.
I especially loved the pretty gold shimmer from the Pinata gold metallic AI. My Valentine is for my DH :-)
I added a thin black CS trim on the panel and die cut heart. Before attaching to my card front I splattered diluted Inka Gold..Gold paint, which added a watercolour texture. Then I stamped my PB sentiment using my MISTI and Archival Black ink.
Stamps: Penny Black "Heartfelt Thanks". Paper: SU Whisper White thick and Basic Black. Yupo Paper. Ink: Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink: Sailboat Blue, Wild Plum and Purple Twilight. Pinata Alcohol Ink: Gold metallic.
Accessories: Foil, Ranger Blending Solution, MISTI, Inka Gold paint, palette, #6 paint brush, SU Hearts Die (ret), dimensionals.
Besides today's F4A363 Valentine Challenge my card is for the CAS Watercolour February Challenge: Love. Hope you can join us. You have until February 25th to play :-) There are stunning samples by the DT and our GD. Happy Valentine's Day my friends. Hugs..
