Mixed Media Heart Embellishments with Daisie Scraps

 Hi everyone! Today I have a video up on YouTube sharing how I created these lovely hearts.  I really allowed my self to get messy and used all of my favorite pinks and reds.




Products Used:

  • Pink Stiletto
  • Pink Moscato
  • One Hot Mama
  • Piggy Pink
  • Buddy’s Favorite Color
  • Scarlet’s Fever 
I started with my background stamps. They don’t see enough love so I pulled them out and used some Stazon ink to ensure that the ink would not smear when I added the paints to it. I had gessoed my background paper so that it was able to accept all of the water and paint and allow them to blend. 


While adding my paints I was mindful of mixing some pink and reds together in the same area so that it would not look like blood splatter. I think the mixture created a good color and tone to avoid that. I really just added color where I felt that it and it needed it. I knew I was going to be using a cut file to cut this up so it didn’t really matter what one specific area looked like 


After cutting all the hearts out using my Silhouette, I outlined them with a Pitt artist pen. This also has permanent ink so if I wanted to add more color it would not smear. I then started playing around with some layout design ideas and ended up with a vertical design using a Dear Liszt paper as the background.



Head on over to YouTube and check out the process video.  Don’t forget to add my name (Daisie) to the comments of your next purchase for a fun freebie!
