Dream and Discover
By Jennifer McGuire

Color misting is a fabulous way to create a soft watercolor-like flower for handmade cards. Why not add a bit more interest with a touch of glitter?


Hero Materials:
PG104 Ultra Fine Prisma Glitter
WM101 Water Mist Bottle

Additional Materials:
sewing machine

Instructions:
1. Ink hyacinth image with various colors of Versacolor Pigment Ink. Before stamping, spritz 3-4 times with water. Stamp onto white paper. Let dry.

2. Add a few touches of liquid glue to various places on the stamped flower. Shake on glitter and let dry.

3. Cut out flower.

4. Add green wave piece to the bottom of a yellow Hero Arts notecard.

5. Stamp greeting piece.

6. Assemble as shown, adding stitching.

Variation:
To save time, leave the flower without cutting it out, and draw lines instead of sewing.
