I am adding to my post some directions as to how I created these hearts.
"Hearts with DecoArt Love"
Trace hearts onto cardboard substrate and cut out.
Using Decoart Media Gesso in white,cover both sides of hearts
When dry,coat each heart,both sides with
Americana Lace Chalky finish
Add color using DecoArt Americana Chalky Finish and Multi Surface Satin paints
Stencil background with lightest color and continue to
Add more color using other stencils or stamps
Mix together Glamour Dust and Americana Glazing medium and coat over each heart
Coat hearts with Americana DuraClear Gloss Varnish
and decorate to your heart is content!

These hearts are so out-of-this-world magical! The bright colours and the glitter are truly enchanting. It's not hard to see which one was intended for the boy recipient - you managed to smuggle some fairytale magic into the boy design too! The froggies are so cute! I'm sure they all adored them!
Oh.. such wonderful and happy hearts! AMAZING are they!
I think they will be adored by your beloved ones!
I wish you a happy weekend my friend!

Brilliant Jackie, love the bright colourful and playful mood of these fun hearts! And those images are delightful! I bet your nieces and nephews loved them and I can just see how much fun you had with making them too!
Completely gorgeous and awesome! LOVE the artsy backgrounds and all the alteration to the ephemera. Beautiful!
Jackie - these are sooooooooooo adorable. I can just imagine how their eyes popped and the love they felt when they opened these beautiful cards. Colten's was my favorite but they are all just INCREDIBLE. The colors are so fun. Loved this post!! Hugs. j.
I am very very sorry, Jackie, but if you are going to posts lovelies like these, a full tutorial WILL BE REQUIRED! ;-) Heeheehee I was like, where's the tute? No, seriously, these are darling! Hope they all sent thankyous (only 2 of 10 of mine ever do, but my own daughter's just as bad). Thanks for sharing! xoxo
gorgeous Jackie, love the colours and the images are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing them. Happy crafting, Angela x
They're all so fabulous, Jackie - lucky, lucky kidlets! xo
Oh, these are so special, Jackie! They have a lovely fairy tale quality and how nice for your nieces and nephew have something made especially for them! How I would have loved that as a child! What sweet names your nieces and nephew have too! xx
So charming and I love that the colours are bright yet each heart has such a beautiful vintage quality to it. Adorable!
Wishes

Jackie, these Valentine's sure made me smile, and I can imagine the delight of the grand kids when they received them! I tried to pick a favorite, but couldn't...they are all so cool! Love the addition of the wings and those butterflies! Makes me feel like staying home and crafting, but it's Saturday morning and you know what that means! Hugs!
Jackie, these are all just so gorgeous!! I love all the neon colours, it's a spring explosion, just what the doctor ordered during these dark days! Beautiful images too! So much fun, so bright and cheery. Think I need me some of those Dazzling Metallics! hugs :)
Oh, I love the colours so much Jackie! Vibrant and happy, like spring is already here :-) They will be so happy with it!
These are just too cute!! Thanks so much for playing at the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge.
Ohh wow, wonderful fun hearts Jakie, just brilliant idea. Very interesting background with decoart paints and I love the way you have used Geko art images. Thanks for joining us at Artistic Stamper this month
