Make a Valentine - it's that time, let's bang 'em out
I started off by stamping the poem ‘How do I love thee?’ using Brilliance ink in Graphite Black on mat white cardstock. I sprayed some glimmer mist in Candy Apple Red and Sunburst on to some acetate and then I placed the stamped image into the spritzed ink and moved the card around on the acetate until I was happy with the result. For layer 2 - the border of the black mat cardstock is punched out using a heart Fiskars border punch. For layer 3 – the same technique as used on the stamped image – spritz glimmer mists on acetate, and then corner punched. All are mounted on a matt back A4 piece of cardstock (8.3 × 11.7), which I scored and folded in half and then used a corner punch on all four corners, and finally a coordinating ribbon to add the final flourish.

What great depth of color you achieved by blending the two colors of glimmer mist. I'm going to have to give that technique a try ... just beautiful. I also love how you made the heart border ... very pretty valentine.
Very elegant. Its gorgeous.
