True Love Valentine Card

Hello again this week. Today, I have a Valentine card that was used in the Ranger booth at this years Creativation, which showcases Tim Holtz Distress Mica Spray from Ranger.
I cut a black surfaces tag a little shorter and then embossed it with the Tiles Texture Fade from Sizzix and Tim.
I misted the tag with Tarnished Brass Distress Mica Spray.
I painted over a piece of Water Color Cardstock with Peacock Feathers, and then misted Brushed Pewter through a mini Bubbles Stencil.
Using a Mini Ink Blending Tool, I stenciled Hearts over the card.
Once the paint was dry, I stenciled over the hearts again with Tarnished Brass Mica Spray.
I die cut a Baroque Movers and Shapers with Tim's Corrugate Textured Surface, and added Peacock Feathers over the raised portions, and then misted Brushed Pewter Mica Spray over it.
I cut out the Found Relative card, punched a Candied Apple Distress painted piece with the heart punch, and adhered it his hand.
I misted Crinkle Ribbon with Candied Apple and Tarnished Brass, and tie it on.
I finally added Botanical Remnant Rubs to the card, stitched around it, and adhered everything.
 
 
Supplies:

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!

  4. Love this, so clever to put the heart in the man's hand! Funny too, because I just used that same couple on a Valentine card I have posted today - LOL. Your color combo is terrific. I never would have thought to use those two colors together but it really gives the card so much life and joy!

    Hugs,
    Linda

  12. You always do such great step by step instructions! Love that the little heart is in his hand AND the corrugated background. Love the color combo - Peacock Feathers is an unusual Valentines choice but it works great! (one of my favorite colors...)
