........................................................

This is how I've interpreted the mood board:

To create this layout, I drew a heart and then I colored it in with Shimmerz paints and Farber Castell watercolor pencils.I let it drip in some areas to create movement.

I also create drips around the page as a border. I used the black watercolor pencil to outline all the edges. In order to get the blurred edge I wet the pencil first before each use.

If you want to buy some of the Shimmerz colors I used today just go to the Shimmerz store and you can buy those and some more yummy colors and... if you mention my name during checkout you will receive a free product.
