Forever My Always

Hello friends, I have a card to share with you all today...
My brother sent me this beautiful Kuretake Gansai Tambi 36 watercolor set early this year (or rather I should say I asked him to buy this for me :D) and this was the first image I chose to color and finally today I made a card out of it...

To create this card:

• First I stamped the image from stamping Bella called "Forever My Always" onto Tim Holtz watercolor cardstock using MFT Black Licorice hybrid ink.
• Then using Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors I colored the whole scene.
• I adhered the design paper onto an A2 sized top folding white cardstock. The design paper behind the water colored panel was a free gift from Simon Says Stamp, so I don't know from which company it is.
• Then directly adhered the water colored panel on top of the design paper just so that it lays perfectly on center.
• Stamped the sentiment which comes in stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
• Added some hearts for embellishment and I applied some glitter on top.

Here is a close up:

Hope you like my card. Thanks for stopping by!!
