This is the card I created for you today. Last night I couldn't sleep so I decided to watercolor few images, and this is one of them :) I used Watercolor Pencils and Inktense Pencils by Derwent. These pencils are a lot of fun to use and I love the results!!

  • Emboss a panel from White Cardstock using Fancy Fan Embossing folder (SU), mat this piece with a slightly bigger piece of Red Cardstock. Add piece to card base.

  • Stamp sentiment on a circle pink piece in Archival Black Ink. Stamp heart in Pink Ink and ink all edges. Add to card.
  • Add pink rhinestones.
  • Cover heart with Crystal Lacquer.
