Hello friends! Today I am extra excited to be sharing my very first project as a February Guest Designer for A Colorful Life Designs! All month long, I am going to be sharing projects using some AMAZING stencils from A Colorful Life Designs to share with you all for inspiration!

The card that I am sharing today uses the new Heart Wreath Stencil, part of the January 2023 Release, where I used a really cool ink-smooshing technique to make a water-color-esque background!

I love how easy this background was to pull together! I smooshed my Distress Inks onto my glass mat, smooshing my Distress Heavy Stock into one color at a time, and heat setting the color between smooshes! I then used some Pixie Spray on the back of my Heart Wreath Stencil, applied it to my dry smooshed ink background, and applied a solid layer of Red Velvet Glitz Glitter Gel over it!
I also thought it was really fun to use a hot foiled sentiment in the center of the Heart Wreath Stencil as well! It gave some really cool interest to the card!
