Sending You Sunshine

Hello friends, its time for a new challenge over at A Blog Named Hero blog...

The theme this time is "New"...

And here is my card for the challenge...

I played with a new stamp set from Hero Arts called "Color Layering Hibiscus" . I stamped the layers with distress inks from light to dark onto Tim Holtz water coloring paper. I softened each layer of the stamped image with water to create a faux water coloring effect. Once everything was dry I black heat embossed the sentiment and splattered some pink inks and finally added lots of sequins..

Here is close up, I really love how this card turned out..

Hope you liked my card too..
