I had so much fun during last month's Neat & Tangled collaboration with Cosmo Cricket that I thought I would make another card using the Just Add Watercolor paper pad.
This heart is from one of the cut apart tag sheets in the 12x12 pad. I used Kuretake Gansai watercolors to color it. Then I masked the sentiment from So Very Blessed, stamped it over the heart in Versafine, and clear embossed.
Then I added some stitching and embellishments. I originally planned to use my clear sequins, but I couldn't find them (which, if you saw my craft area, is not at all surprising). So, I used the white and pink sequins from the Full of Love sequin mix instead. I stitched around the heart three times, stitching over the sequins as I went. Then I finished it off with some Close to My Heart gems.
That's all for today, thanks for stopping by!
