Sparkle & Shine Challenge #23

Happy February! It's the first which means that it is time for another challenge over on the Sparkle & Shine challenge blog. With February comes hearts, red, pink, and love. That was the focus of this challenge.

I started this one by dry embossing the hearts onto a sheet of watercolor paper which left me with some impressions to use as a guide for painting in the hearts. I sprinkled the paper with some Brusho watercolor pigment powders and then used a water brush to paint in the hearts.

                         

I used some double sided tape to make some glittery banner strips for each side of the sentiment. Then I die cut and stamped some flowers and leaves to embellish with, making sure to add some little jewels inside of the little red flowers.

We'd love for you to come and play along with us over on Sparkle & Shine blog...just click HERE to be taken there and you can upload your project. The random winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to the fabulous Create a Smile online stamp store.
