One of my favorite techniques is making monoprints using acrylic paints and my GelPress. I make about 50 at a time, and then pull them out when I need a background. I love the color in this one, and thought it would be the perfect background for the DON'T JUDGE set from Visible Image Stamps.
Because the paint is a slicker surface than regular inks, I emboss my images once they are stamped. I love the crispness of the Clair Nocturne ink, and it's my go to black! But - it doesn't dry on paint so has to be embossed. I used Clear powder on this card. It measures approx. 6x6".

What an amazing beauty. The stamp set has a lot of products and I can foresee lots of projects on which it could be used. I love the hearts, and the person with the heart in the middle. What an adorable entry for my theme at Art Journal Journey, too. It's fabulous.
