Here's what I've created for you...
Here's what I've created for you...
To make my card I used the castle from Enchanted Tales and stamped it randomly over a piece of watercolor paper, using Versamark ink, then I embossed with white. Next I used distress inks to watercolor the piece (Picked Raspberry, Cracked Pistachio, Squeezed Lemonade and Tumbled Glass). When it was dry I added glue to my card where I wanted the sequins to be (in this case along the lines where the colors meet) and I sprinkled the sequins on liberally and gently pressed them into the glue. I shook off the excess sequins that didn't stick to the glue. There were spots that needed more sequins so I glued those down to fill in the gaps. I stamped the unicorn from Magical Wishes on a piece of watercolor paper and used the same color distress inks as I used for my background to color. I fussy cut the unicorn and placed it on a scallop panel. I added some Wink of Stella to parts of the unicorn to add some shimmer. The sentiment, stamped on black card stock and embossed in white, is also from Magical Wishes.
