A summer memory as winter hastens on apace - we've had several mornings with heavy frosts and an orange fog alert last weekend.
This card uses the Set of 9 Flowered ATC stamps from Art Neko. It's been coloured and sitting on my desk for a while, and I made a mess of the first background that I tried it out on. So today I simply used a stencil from TCW (it's meant to be a Navaho design, but I think it works for ripples) and misted with blue and gold sprays. The image itself is stamped on watercolour paper, heat embossed and coloured with Winsor & Newton watercolours. I finished it off with some large sequins to mimic the leaf shape (cut from a scrap of polished stone background mostly used for frogs) and some clear sequins and bling.
We had pancakes for dinner the other night - and one of them came out of the frying pan with a perfect little heart on it. We usually have them with freshly squeezed lemon juice and sugar, or warm maple syrup.

Clever you with that stencil - it does look like ripples. And those sequins and sparkles for the water are so pretty. That is a beautiful image and you've colored it wonderfully. It's always a nice surprise to find a heart here and there.
Love your card. I am always on the look out for hearts . . . they are always fun! Taking the time to notice the little things! have a wonderful week!
