 Also I noticed these images are great to colour, as they are larger than some.
So with out further delay, I came up with this little quick card.

When it comes to picking your colour's for your images, I used ones similar to ones in the backing paper. 


 I water coloured the image, I notice these Altnew Water colour, are lovely and creamy. You only need a bit on you brush.


When dry, add to your backing paper which has been mounted on to a 6" x 6"

I punched a hole into the top, and add a piece of white ribbon.
Add sentiment that has been embossed in white onto black card stock.

I then added the Nuvo drops all over to add the sparkle.
