I know my card last week was created with alcohol inks, but I had so much fun making these panels and I just had to share them!  This blend of pinks and red matched the color palette perfectly.  The XOXOXO strip was cut using a Simon Says Stamp die.  The white heart and gold foil hearts are dies from Cherry Lynn Designs.  
That is all there is to this card.  No stamping!  I love the way it turned out!

  2. Where to start with this wonderful piece? The alcohol ink background is a marvel. I'm keen to try this technique because the colours look so rich and the patterning so variable. The gold heart looks as though it's been hand embroidered or crocheted rather than being made of paper. The horizontal line of hugs and kisses.... sigh! You nailed it.
