Mixed Media Card | Zen Heart Love

Happy Sunday everyone… on this first Sunday of the month, I have a mixed media Valentine theme card to share with you all.

On my card, I am using stamps amd stencils from STAMPlorations: Zen Hearts ARTplorations Stencil, Art Splatters ARTplorations Stencil, Big Dreamer Stamp Set.

I started with adding the Twilight Catherine Pooler Ink on a white cardstock using the Art Splatter Stencil and blending brush. Then I trimmed it slightly smaller than the grey card base. I distress the edges with distresser tool. I added this background panel on the card with permanent adhesive runner.

I mixed some fine glitter with texture paste on my craft mat. I dabbed some of the Be Mine Catherine Pooler Ink Pad on the craft mat and mixed the texture paste with the ink. I added the paste on a white cardstock usung the Zen Heart Stencil. I dried it with craft heater and then I fussy cut the heart and added on the card with permanent glue adhesive.

I stampe the sentiment and flower from the Big Dreamer Stamp Set on a white cardstock using the Midnight Catherine Pooler Ink, I dried them with craft heater. Next I colored the flowers and leaves with Catherine Pooler Inks – Be Mine, Grass Skirt, and Lime Rickey – using water brush.

I fussy cut the flower branch and sentiment with micro tip scissors. And then I added them on the heart with permanent adhesive glue and also I used 3D foam tape on some of the leaves and flower for extra dimension.

I added some white paint splatters on the card to finish this card.

  3. Well, Helen, I was looking at all the cards and forgot to comment on the heart card separately. I love how it is geometric within the heart as it really makes it striking.

  5. This is just wonderful, Helen. I love the stencilled, sparkly heart atop those gray spolches. That little flower is an awesome addition. I love the distressed edges on the white panel too. Just fantastic. Thanks for playing with us at Time Out.
