Hello again!  Today I've got a sweet little card using a fairly new stamp set from Paper Rose Studio.
 
 
Hi there!
I started this card by stamping and colouring in the little mouse image on some white cardstock.  I coloured it in with Copic markers and then added a little Nuvo Shimmer pen to the raindrops.  Once that was dry, I went over the raindrops with Nuvo Crystal Glaze to give them a wet look. 
I just happened to have the Forest Trip papers out on my desk from my last set of cards, and I had a scrap that was perfect for the card front.  It had a rather watery look to it.  I used the largest of the Splat dies to cut from the center of this paper.  I trimmed the paper down to be 5 1/4" x 4" as I wanted to have a white border around my card.  I glued the coloured mouse image to the front of the card and then adhered the blue card front on top of it.  
I cut three hearts from white cardstock, layered and glued them together, and then attached the sentiment to it in a rather haphazard way.  I used the Nuvo Shimmer pen to add some shimmer over the front of the heart. I went around the edges of the heart with a little blue ink to help define the edges.  Then I covered the heart with the Nuvo Crystal Glaze.  The heart is much whiter in real life and looks more like a puffy embellishment. Once the glaze was dry, I glued the heart in place to the front of my card.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope I have been able to give you a little inspiration today!
Karen.
