Hi! I hope you are having a great week! I've been painting but not with acrylics or oil paints but rather with Prima's water soluable oil pastels. Today I have a clean and simple Valentine's Day card to share featuring a watercolored background along with an embossed heart.

The heart image was stamped using a Stampington stamp that I had in my stash since 2005!

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
For color inspiration, I joined along with the colourQ colour challenge:

and The Paper Players where the challenge is to create a Clean & Simple Valentine:

Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you enjoy the rest of the week!
Be Sweet ;)
