Much love...

Morning all!

Oh dear - what has happened to the sunshine?
It is very bleak here today so the only thing to do is stay in the dry and craft!
Today's card is made with goodies from Dies to Die For
Embellishments - Taylored Expressions Sequins - Summer Nights

I stamped the image with white pigment ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.

I painted the flowers with Kuretake Color Clean Brush pens.  
(Used for the first time- eeeeek)!

I then masked the heart and flicked some paint about - oh yep - that went everywhere! /-:

I added a simple sentiment and some sequins and finished off by matting the image on a piece of blue card.

...and here we are...much love on a wet Monday morning...xxx
