For the card, I started out by stamping the large heart in the Botanical Heart stamp set in waterproof black ink on Arches watercolor paper. Then I painted the flower using the Paper Fashion Basics watercolor set.

To finish off the card, I stamped and gold heat embossed one of the circles and a greeting on black cardstock. I die cut the circle greeting using the Nested Circles die set from Simon. Then I stamped and embossed the stripes on vellum and adhered everything to the card.

Thanks for stopping by today! You can see the entire January 2020 release HERE.
