Coloring With Sequins!

Yay for a long weekend!

I hope everyone stayed safe this 4th and had extra time to craft.

I've been dying to play with the new Avery Elle Stay Fresh

stamp set just because that pineapple is so trendy right now and of course for the fun sentiments!

Fun and cute right?!

I've been heat embossing in gold on vellum, watercoloring and today

coloring with sequins!!!

Today's card...

I thought it would fit right in to the latest AEIHeartUChallenge

I first die cut the pineapple on some teal cardstock in my stash and then 

penciled the outline of the pineapple on my card base.

Then the coloring began with several of the fabulous Avery Elle sequins in 

Lemonade, Evergreen and Kraft adhered with Multi Matte Medium glue.  

They are a blend of shades of color and 2 sizes in 5mm and 6mm all in one bag!

The sentiment finished the card panel and I adhered with foam tape.

That's my card for today!
