"Koality" valentine...





Just a fun card with CTMH Smitten stamp set (current now).   Not wanting to do the usual pink/red I used Playing with Patterns from last years SU catalog.   I stamped the kaola and colored with pencils then with brush to watercolor pencil tip and then die cut the little guy, stamped mostly the balloon part on one of the bubble circles paper...going mostly for the calypso coral circle.  For the design I used the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week.   I die cut hearts from other circles that were similar in color.     The sentiment came with the smitten set.  As some of you can tell when I was using the brush on the tip of the pencil some of it was flying over on the card background ...I decided to leave it!   Anyway, thanks for stopping by, have a good week!   Kathy
