Hi there crafty friends! Sharing a card that I created for the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Booth for Creativation this year. The stamps are starting to hit the stores now and this Spring Shadows stamp set that I've used today is one of them. This set has so many wonderful spring images (flowers, bunnies, etc) but I was immediately drawn to the heart.
This one of the more colorful cards I made this year using one image from the Spring Shadows set. I loved the look of the silhouette heart and thought it would look great stamped in a rainbow pattern. I took a panel of Distress Watercolor cardstock and inked it up by smooshing Antique Linen Distress Ink onto my glass mat, spraying it with water and swiping my watercolor panel through it. I dried it with a heat tool and added another layer of ink and dried that as well.
Once I distressed my watercolor panel, I stamped the heart in ALL the colors of Distress Oxide. I inked the stamp up with each color of Distress Oxide that I used, gave it a light spritz of water with my Distress Sprayer, then stamped it. I cleaned the stamp with a baby wipe between each color and stamped and spritzed and cleaned in between until my panel was filled with rainbow hearts.
Once the panel was completed, I gave it a few flicks of water to move the color around a bit to make it look really distressed. I glued the panel to a card base, then I added the sentiment from the Tiny Text stamp set (another MUST HAVE from this release) to a black paper strip and embossed it in white. It really was simple to make I did not really measure and just had fun with my stamping. I just made sure to line up each row of ink pads in advance :)

I loved this when I saw it on Tim's video and love it even more now. I've always had a thing for hearts and the color array on this card is over the moon! You always put your own special twist on the products you use. You are a unique and very talented inspiration - thanks so much!
