Water Color Fun

With Water Color Pencils

Using water color pencils is a fun way to color your project. 

You can mix colors to get blended and softer colors. 

Or...you can just color in your image without adding water. 

Be sure to give it a try and share with us at  Heart 2 Heart.

Notecard

Send a Note or Send a Gift

The new Send a Note Thin cut is a fun way to send a note or 

send a gift card. It's just the right size for either. I made this one 

with a note so I could include a gift card. 

Choosing colors for the card was a real challenge. Trying to

 choose four  colors from the challenge at Color my Heart 

was a definite challenge. I finally came up with 

Sapphire, Scarlet, Sundance and Shortbread. Sanding the 

Sapphire cardstock gives the denim look to the card.

good for guys. Add a little pop of color and the card is ready.
