Bubble Hearts Anniversary

Hi everyone.  I have another anniversary card to share with you today which has Tangerine, Aqua and White which is the theme for the  Less is More Challenge and Bubbles which is the theme over at Addicted to CAS Challenge - No. 165.


I started with the background using Broken China and Ripe Persimmon Distress Inks.  I laid a bit of each colour down on my glass mat, added some water and picked up each of the colours in turn on an old plastic card using just the edge to drag some in both directions in the centre of the piece of white card.  When I was happy I used a bubble heart stamp from Chocolate Baroque stamp set Floral Heart and applied it in both colours over the top.

I then stamped another of the bubble hearts from the same set on to a piece of white card with Versafine Habanero on one, and Deep Lagoon on the other, and heat embossed over the top with WOW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder.  I then fussy cut them both out and added a piece of craft foam to the back of each.  I finished with some Clear Wink of Stella over the top to add some shimmer.

I finished by die cutting it using a square stitched die from The Works and added another layer of white card behind.  I added the sentiment using the Versafine Deep Lagoon, again heat embossing with the Clear Gloss EP.  I then added this to a 6" square white card.

This is fantastic, Pat. I love the way you have placed the ink on the background to create an intentional but abstract effect. A really unique design. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More, Anita x
