Buckets of Love

Lili of the Valley had a sale recently that was too good to pass up ;) and I treated myself to a few new stamps and some of their paper packs.  At half price they were an absolute bargain!  I think I could use an entire stack of this pink gingham, it's such a pretty shade!

I've coloured my image with watercolour pencils.  Wink of Stella added to the water and to the bubbles.  Paper Smooches die cut hearts.
I used my Dienamics Stitched rectangle die for my base - it was too short so I sliced it and then slotted in the sentiment strip ... a good idea even if I do say so myself :)

You were so clever to stretched your cross-stitched rectangle with your sentiment banner. Your coloring on this image is fabulous! Great card.
