Hi there, it's Nicole. Today, I have a rainbow halftone hearts and background card to share with you. This was inspired by all things rainbow and is a great way to show appreciation to fellow paper crafters and card makers. I am going to use halftone hearts from Ulta new with two colors of distress oxide ink. I chose oxide inks because they have pigment ink in them, which works well for this technique. I like to start with a lighter color and then roll on a darker color for a two-tone effect. If you make a mistake, you can easily flip the paper over and start again. The Misti stamping tool is also great for layering images. I stamped the largest heart first, as it will have the main greeting. Then, I used rainbow order for the rest of the hearts. For the sentiment, I used the crafty friends stamp set from Altenew and stamped it with versafine black ink. After trimming down the panel, I worked on the background. I matted the strip on black cardstock and decided to add a diagonal pattern using the "thank you for your inspiration" greeting. Stamping at a diagonal is more forgiving and gives a fun look. I used the same colors as the hearts for this background. To create a cohesive look, I stamped several lines of the same color before moving on. I trimmed down the background panel and the heart panel, leaving a little bit of cardstock at the top and bottom to ground the design. For the finishing touch, I stamped the "thank you for being my inspiration" sentiment on black cardstock with versamark ink, added white embossing powder, and heat set it. I then trimmed this into a thin strip and adhered it underneath the other greeting....
