Today is Day Two of the Countdown to Creativity and I've got an easy Valentine's Day card for you. To make this card I started off with a piece of water color paper and I sprayed it with Pink Liquid Watercolor spray. I heat embossed it in black using Onyx Pigment ink and Clear embossing powder. Then I cut the piece down with a paper trimmer and matted it on black cardstock with some foam adhesive on the back. I set that bit aside so that I could work on the background.
Your starry background caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteI really like the background. Usable not just for Valentine's!

ReplyDeleteThis is a different take on traditional Valentine's Day cards, with the gorgeous pink focal point on kraft, with the black embossed sentiment. The background stencil is very versatile, too. Love it! 💜💜💜
