I thought I'd try a new to me technique which has been popular for a while, so to twist it up {and as Valentine's Day is around the corner} I thought I'd try bokeh in hearts rather than dots. Created using hearts from Mama Elephant
Tree Friends, Bling and
On Target, with the gorgeous silhouette and sentiment from
So Breezy. Inspired by
Mama Elephant Photo Inspiration Challenge,
CAS on Sunday Lovely Dovey, Addicted to CAS New Challenge, and
Curtain Call Love Letters Challenge. Stamped in a combination of
Spun Sugar and
Picked Raspberry Distress Inks, Hero Arts
Bubble Gum and Momento Luxe
Rose Bud. Stamped the sentiment and girl in position first, then the hearts with the lightest colour first, building up to the darkest layer.
E.T.A... After I uploaded my card I discovered Lisa's
Wanna Sketch has started for the year with the fabulous sketch below - and I couldn't resist linking mine up :)
