I've coloured it with watercolour pencils and then popped up on dimensionals. I had a little scrap of matching DP left so I paper pieced her dress. Clear gloss added to his glasses and their shoes. Simon Says Stamp heart border die and sentiment die. A wee tip I learned from Debby4000 ... use funky foam to make your die cut sentiment pop more!

I've just realised I've used loads of the 'rule of 3' on this card ... 3 touches of green, die and image both sit on the 1/3 lines, and I've 3 places I've used my clear gems. Oh and the image/hearts/sentiment sit in a visual triangle too! Must have subconsciously absorbed all those tutorials ;)
