Hello Friends…

It is Sentiment Saturday time. We’re going to shine, shine, shine today. I’m playing with some metallic watercolor on black cardstock with two Unity Stamp Company sentiment kits.

The Details

Just look at all that metallic shine. I love the mix of gold and silver on the black background. I am thinking I’ll keep this idea around for an anniversary or wedding card too. I think it would be lovely.

I started out by heat embossing the flowers in gold. Then, I used a silver watercolor to paint inside the flowers with a few splatters at the end.

I embossed the sentiment in gold on vellum and then layered them onto the card front.
