Petaloo + KOTM Team-Up!

Welcome, Unity and Petaloo Friends!
Today kicks off a week's worth of inspiring creations with a team-up of

Monday being Kit-of-the-Month-Day, I have a sweet little card of 'hearts'
using the May KOTM and the "Color Me Crazy Multi-Colored Centers" Flowers

If you're not familiar with Petaloo's "Color Me Crazy" line, these are an assortment of
various styled flowers that you can paint, stamp, chalk, ink, etc. 
 For mine, I used ColorShine Primrose Spritz and a brush:



As you can see, just dip a paintbrush into the bottle of spritz and paint each of the petals!
Of course, the more coats you give them, the darker they will become :)

I hand-cut a heart from cardstock and then layered the inset with another color.  
The blooms were then added to the center of the heart with foam squares.
The sentiment is from the May KOTM...I love it!
I just stamped it onto the smooth side of the cardstock with ColorBox's Midnight Ink.

Each month you will receive an 8.5 X 11 sheet of unique and original red-rubber
