On this card, I used watercolor paper, and watercolored the hearts and background all in a pretty pool color. I also coated the hearts with Bo Bunny Glitter Paste - my latest addiction! A message from the kit was embossed in silver.
For my next card, I kept with the blue theme and stamped the solid hearts from the set randomly on my card. I had a "bokeh" look in mind as inspiration as I stamped this. Another fun sentiment from the kit was used on this one.
More glitter paste was used on a die cut heart - see, told you I'm addicted! This time I used silver.
Here's my entire set of cards - yes, I was into blue for this release! :-)
And here's a look at the entire kit! It's fabulous!! Two stamp sets, two ink cubes, dies, sequins, things for making shaker cards, including acetate and some really gorgeous vellum, and also additional cards and envelopes. So much fun in one kit!! The sweet & talented queen of shaker cards and sequins - Lucy Abrams - created the exclusive sequin mix, so you know it has to be beautiful!
