Cut card base from Mint Macaron, measuring 5-1/4"x 10-1/2, scoring at 5-1/4", folding in half.
Adhere a 1" x 5-1/4" strip of Gold Striped Designer Series Paper (DSP).
Adhere a 5"x 4-1/4" piece of Lost Lagoon Cardstock (CS).
Cut a strip of Vanilla Striped Ribbon (available Sept. 1, 2015). Fold over one end and adhere it onto itself. Cut the other end in a flag shape. Adhere the ribbon to the card.
Cut a piece of Watercolor Paper - 3-3/4" x 4-3/4". Stamp sentiment image using Versamark ink, and heat emboss with Gold Embossing Powder.
Using an Aqua Painter, apply Mint Macaron, Lost Lagoon and Bermuda Bay inks, allowing the inks to blend into each other. (Perfection NOT required!) I used my ink pads, squeezing the closed ink pad to pool up ink onto the inside of the lid. You can also use drops of reinker on your clear block to grab the ink from.
Squeeze a bit of Tombow Mono-Multi glue into an empty embellishment container. Squeeze water from your Aqua Painter into the glue and mix with the brush of the aqua painter. Grab a bunch of glue mix on your brush and flick the brush over your dry water colored paper. Repeat until you have the desired amount of glue drops. Add glitter to glue drops and allow to dry - may take several hours. Brush away any loose glitter.
Adhere watercolored panel to the card front. Admire!
