I had so much fun making Valentine's Day cards this year! I used art from the Tim Holtz Seasonal paper stack as the focal point. Other elements include paper doilies, and die-cut hearts (Sizzix Hearts - Tipsy), and Tim Holtz tissue tape. The card background is inked with Antique Linen and Worn Lipstick distress inks. First I applied the Antique Linen using the ink pad directly on the cardstock. Then I used the foam applicator to add in the Worn Lipstick. I inked the white paper doily, the die-cut hearts, and the tissue tape with Tea Dye distress ink. For the hearts, I copied some text from Romeo and Juliet and printed it in a nice script font on my printer and then ran it through my Sizzix Big Kick. I inked the edges of the hearts and the vintage clip art with Vintage Photo distress ink. Finally, I used a Tim Holtz flourish stamp with Versamark ink and embossed it with Zing Gold metallic embossing powder. I love the collage look. It's so forgiving! And as Tim says, "Embrace Imperfection!" Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! Peace.
