Happy Valentines Day

Hello my Crafty Friends!!
Hope everyone is looking forward to 
a fun and crafty weekend ahead!!!
So I watch a lot of videos by 
and this one blog post and video
really inspired me a lot!!!!
I just had to try it for myself. 
Well I swear I don't feel very 
comfortable making a CAS style card. 
I love them when others do it but I feel
when I do it......well not so much!!
But in person these came out very shimmery
due to the little water spritzer I had to spray
water on the background used to have some 
shimmer paint in it. So it actually looks nice. 
I just can't seem to photograph it looking 
shimmery is all! 
So here is what I came up with....


This one I used the spritzing bottle
to get the ink moving around. 



This one I used just a paint brush 
and spritzed it a little after it had 
all dried. 


They look better in person. I still like 
Kristina's better. Just need to play
around with it some more.

  11. I love the way you have spritzed your colour here. Sometimes photographs just won't pick up the shimmer and shine. Thanks for joining in with our 'Keep it Sweet and Simple' challenge at Winter Wonderland this week, and good luck
