I fell in LOVE with the new Strawberry Shortcake sequin mix in this release. The colors and shimmer are so pretty - so I was inspired to create a card based on them. I used the new Round and Round Background stamp and white heat embossed it onto Distress Watercolor card stock.
I used Distress Inks and Distress Ink Refills to watercolor in the background - letting the colors layer on top of each other. I then added a large die cut heart that was cut from vellum and adhered after running it through my little Xyron machine. The die cut sentiment is from the new Thanks Frame wafer dies, and the stamped sentiment is from the Say It All Friend stamp set.
I used another sentiment from the Say It All Friend stamp set on the inside of the card, stamping it with Picked Raspberry Archival ink and that was it!
To see how my card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube.
Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home and provide for my children! I appreciate your support more than words can say! I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
