Mixed Media Valentine's day Card

Hello Everyone,


I started the background with applying Gesso, becoz I knew that I'll be working with Gelatos and PIIT pens. When gesso dried completely, I stamped the flower image  all odd places on the card with Design memory craft stamp and Versamark. Heat embossed them with white embossing powder. Stamped some text and hearts with Archival Inks. Next step was to apply Gelatos in green and blue colors, used water to blend them together. Wiped off colors from white flowers with baby wipe.Used PIIT pens to highlight some areas to create depth. The doll image stamp is from Prima. Stamped it with Archival black ink as it is waterproof. Colored the image with watercolor pencils. After this assembled everything together on white card stock.
