Cathy's challenge was new year = new stamping supplies. The two new items to my inventory are: PTI "HUGS" die and the Heidi Swapp stencil(hearts).
I did the whole card face first with the brayer adding the stenciled hearts on top. Then the die cuts were used for the words "LOVE" and "HUGS"....saved those pieces and added more die cuts of those words to build them up. Glued the original colored words on top, stamped the ampersand and glued on one red heart that I had colored with a red Copic. Another valentine for the stash.
Happy & Healthy New Year everyone!

This is absolutely stunning! Your brayering and stenciling is a wow in itself, but added with the popped/layered words it's just spectacular. Love every inch of it! Happy New Year!
