To color wash background for the Follow Your Art sentiment, I placed 2 drops of Coastal Cabana reinker and 3 drops of Champagne Mist shimmer Paint onto an acrylic block. Using an aqua painter I mixed them together using the water in the aqua painter until you are happy with the color. Then I painted them on with the aqua painter in a side to side fashion until the Whisper White cardstock was covered completely and let dry.
The sentiment was stamped in Pacific Point and then re stamped with VersaMark ink using my Stamparatus and embossed with clear embossing powder to make it pop.
Center the sentiment layer to the front of the card base and adhere only one side of this layer to the left flap.
Glue down flowers and arrows from your Follow Your Art embellishment kit. I used the multipurpose glue.
Place a coastal cabana paperclip on the bottom right edge of the sentiment layer and tie on a heart embellishment using the calypso coral thread.
The inside of the card was stamped in Memento tuxedo black ink, then colored with my many marvelous markers. If you don't have the right colors you can also use a blender pen and ink pad method to color the image.
