First, I watercolored the Irresistibly Yours DSP panel using Soft Sky ink. Once it dried, I wiped it down with a paper towel, adhered it to the Basic Black panel and glued it onto the card base.
I stamped several meerkats on scraps of Whisper White. I colored them with watercolor pencils and used the blender pen to blend and enrich the color. I then fussy cut them and attached them with dimensionals.
The sentiment was die cut using the Well Written Framelits Dies and scraps of Basic Black. These were adhered using the Fine Tip Glue Pen.
I added a few rhinestones for balance and bling.
I made three cards using the same ingredients. I did change the ink color of the background and the card base was changed to match it. Everything else was constant. So, card #2 above used Soft Sky, card #3 used Daffodil Delight, and card #4 used Smoky Slate.
