Paper Girls Challenge #73 : Love/Anniversary

Good Morning, friends!  Today I am back with another Paper Girls Challenge!  This week's theme is Love/Anniversary.  Good timing, with Valentine's Day coming, don't you think?  :)  Here is the card I made:


And here is a close up:


First, I stamped a frame from Paper Smooches' Flirty Frames set using Versamark, then I used clear embossing powder to set it.  Next, I wet the entire frame area using a clean brush and water, then dabbed different colors of pink watercolors around the frame.  Once it was dry, I die cut out the frame, then backed it with some acetate.  I surrounded the acetate with foam tape to make it a shaker card.  I used a scrap piece of watercolor paper and used more pink watercolors to color the entire area.  Once that was dry, I used my Mama Elephant Confetti Creative Cuts die to cut out a bunch of hearts.  To the hearts, I added some different colored pink sequins and some clear glass beads.  The sentiment if from Paper Smooches' Good Gabs set.

I love how this card turned out.  Simple, pretty, and fun!  I am also submitting this card for this week's Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge where the theme is Anything Goes!
