![](/forums/customavatars/avatar188455_1.gif) | | It’s time to start making Valentines and I decided to use up some of my “winter” paper to do just that. I painted this whimsical pair of skaters with watercolor pencils and then embellished with a silver gel pen and crystal fine glitter before I matted them on a blue scalloped oval that was then mounted on a rectangular scrap of Bo Bunny holiday paper (reversible paper, this side is the reverse).
For the card base, I used this wonderful cardstock from Core’Dinations – the texture and distressing give it an entirely different effect from the core color. |
