I don't often work small so this was a real challenge for me and although I like the results I won't be making a habit of doing ATCs.
I did these as my contribution to the ATC swap organised by Amy Prof Lyons of Life in the Lyon's Den. For others see the flickr group: "My _(insert your own adjective here)_ Valentine" ATC Swap 2006
I made the hearts using acrylic inks (including gold and silver that don't show up so well on the scan) over card that I had printed. I mounted them on some paper I'd washed with blue watercolour.
My idea was that each heart was a treasure island and the kiss marks the spot.
I hope you all get a kiss in the right place on Valentine's Day, from the right person.

I love the hearts because they look real and very edible and I am greedy.
They almost seem to beat. Theres's something about the way the size changes from one to the other.
Pi - we'll be having raspberry and chocolate meringue tonight!
Shane - Glad to hear it.
Kyknoord - thank you, I hadn't seen that but now I can.
SO pretty!
A kiss in the right place? I shudder to think...
But at least I'm smiling when I see this.
Happy V Day, CARLONE.
Krista - thank you!
Andrea - just where were you thinking of? Oh dear, that really isn't the right place is it?
Thanks for the V wishes! Hope you've had a good one - we are in the middle of making our lovely supper right now - so no more from me here today... ;-)
Lovely!
I can also see them almost beating...the beats surround that 'right spot'.
Thanks Nan.
And also Reluctant Nomad ;-)
very sweet and romantic.
love the one in the top middle.
don't know why, just do!
Thank you joli noir perle - that one needed just that little bit more love and you've supplied it! Thank you. ;-)
