Lawnscaping Challenge #123:ending Love (Entry 2)

The current Lawnscaping Challenge is on one of my favorite topics! Being from Loveland, Colorado, I absolutely LOVE Valentine's Day and all things love!

I sent out two sets of Valentine's this year, my second set using the Sweet Smiles stamp set from Lawn Fawn, and using additional hearts from Love You a Latte and Baked With Love.

I used distress inks to add the watercolor 'splash' effect, and used watercolor pencils and distress inks to color in the gumball machine and gumballs. I also stamped and die-cut the round hearts using the Owen's ABCs set - my current FAVORITE alphabet set in my stash! I also stamped a variety of the hearts from the different sets on the background using a coral-pink pigment ink, and I embossed the sentiment with clear embossing powder. I added the die-cut images with foam squares and adhered the panel to a Paper Source persimmon 4 Bar card.

Here are my two favorite of the sweet smiles Valentines, and I loved how each turned out different based on the watercolor splashes!







Enjoy! <3
