Hello all, a quick post to share a card which was made just a few mins back.
For this one, I stepped out of my comfort zone of CAS cards. I am a clean freak, even when it comes to cards, so creating with too many things is just not my way. I often find myself challenged at these mixed media things. But I do dare to try every now and then. I was quite happy to see my last month mixed media creation as a challenge favorite, so I guess subconsciously went for this one ;)
I have used paint sprays here, distress ink - fired brick spray and heidi swapp's gold spray.
I used a cling wrap and sprayed both the paints, and pressed my card against it, I did not add any water spray here today, as I was aiming for rich colors, and no smooshing.
I ended up with a shimmery base, but it shine only when you move around, otherwise it looks reddish.
Once done, I used a left over heart stencil, and sponged some scattered hearts using the fired brick DI, then I used Heidi swapp's mixed media stamp and stamped in vintage photo ink, and then used a gold gel pen and ran around the hearts for a outline. Then I used the chevrons from HLS, and stamped in black. I also added a tiny arrow across each and every heart I sponged.
Once I was happy with the background panel, I trimmed it to fit a black textured base.
Added a paper tape with hearts, a few shimmery heart stickers as well.
Two heats from a glittery foam in silver, and the sentiment is from Paper Smooches Word die, also used a black glitter foam for this.
The process:

I ended up with this background.
The shimmer on the card, when facing the window, towards the light.
A closer look at the glittery sentiment.
