I added GL. Brown wink of stella to the center heart
and covered it with Liquid Glass,
 which made is glittery and 3D
 
I also added the wink of stella with Liquid Glass
to the small hearts.  I love the 3D look the Liquid Glass
gives the hearts.

Chocolate ink pad.  In the center of the flowers I added
I love this bling they sparkle so pretty.
