I have a card loaded with hearts for you today. I was playing around with the Piccolo 3D Gels the other day and wondered if they would react the same as icing on a cake. Well, I am happy to say they do. For both hearts, I put down a base of 3D Gel, Deep Red for the top heart and Pink Rose (on clearance) for the bottom heart. Then I just dotted the other colors onto the heart and pulled the color around with a toothpick. You can get some really cool effects. I finished them off with a coat of Instant UV Resin to give them a glass like finish.
For the center heart, I die cut the smaller of the hearts from the Cheery Lynn Designs Two of Hearts. Using Ruby Red Slippers Enamel, I heat embossed the filligree heart from the Piccolo Love with all my Heart Charms set adding the Love which I heat embossed with 24kt Gold Enamel.
Then I just centered it onto my die cut heart. Be sure to click on the
pic above to see the beauty of these enamels. I used my Cheery Lynn
Designs Hearts and Rose Leaves embossing plate for the white and gold panel. I added Shades Valentine dye ink to the plate before embossing the white panel so the ink transferred over. Finished size is 4.25 x 5.5 inches.

I love the elegance of this card. The sheen and glitz on your hearts is so beautiful! Love that embossed background too.
