Thursday Dream Schemes--Free Week

Okay, so call me a liar. I WAS planning on posting that turquoise and brown challenge that I postponed from last week. I really was! Then, I realized that I had only two more posts until Valentine's Day and I really wanted to post this cute pink and green one.
Here it is

The patterned paper is Bo Bunny (even the green behind the rose). The dots, I think, are Bazzill Swiss Dots. The schocking part is the stripe that appears black. It is actually a dark green velvet paper. It doesn't photograph bright enough.



Anyway, the stencil, LG724, is older, but still gorgeous. I used the pearlescent paste. I waited until it was dry and then replaced the stencil. Then, I squeezed Liquid Pearls in two pinks and a green onto my non-stick craft mat. I then used a paint brush loaded with water to thin out each color and paint it onto the dried pearlescent paste. I pulled off the stencil and set the heart aside to dry. I just ADORE the pearl on pearl tones in this card.
