Bokeh Hearts

I have not used this Technique in a long time....and all you need to do is use the Heart Framelits or Punches to make a template and Bokeh is easy!  Well it is easy IF you can find your White Craft ink.....mine is still missing.  But I improvised and used a retired pad called Illuminate we sold several years ago.  More of a Shiny effect, but I LOVE IT!!!

I started with a Rich Razzleberry card base and 2 Rich Razzleberry focal Hearts for the Card Front from Heart Happiness.

A Powder Pink mat and sponged with Sponge Daubers using the Templates below.  I used Sweet & Sassy Heart Framelits, Small Hearts from Lots to Love Box Framelits and the line of Hearts from the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits.  Check your stash and see what you have to create a template.  Punches will work also, as you move the Template around the card and Sponge color.

Save your Templates for future projects!!

I started with Powder Pink and used the Smaller Hearts, then Sweet Sugar Plum on some Larger Hearts, Rich Razzleberry with a Mix of Hearts, and Smoky Slate with a Mix of Hearts.  Try to cover all the space and make the Hearts appear to melt together.  Next is where you use the White Craft ink....but mine is MIA.....but I do love how this Illuminate adds some shine!!  Lots of Sponging, but so WORTH IT!!

A sentiment cut on a partial Banner and Pink Tinsel Trim finish this card.
