For the Last-Minute Lizzies ...

 Today's post features just one Valentine --





-- for anyone like me who decides at nearly the last minute to make just one more!

The large heart is free-hand cut from a print made using my 4" x 4" M & Y Mini Stencil The stencil itself looks like this --




4" x 4" M & Y Mini Stencil



-- and gets its name from the fact that the shapes are the stylized letters M and Y. 

In making this print, I used acrylic paints; after they dried, I added a touch of crayon across the upper left area.  That paint was applied with a sponge brayer loaded with heavy-body acrylic paint.  Since the paint was heavy-body, it has made the printed areas appear slightly 3-dimensional.
