Watermelon Watercolor!

24 Feb
Hero Arts Stamp Your Own Fruit www.allthesparkle.com

So I've been playing with the new Hero Arts products and I LOVE them!  I didn't have much time in my craft room today but I was able to pull together this fun little card! It's only a couple inches wide and I'm thinking it'd be easy to make them even a little bit tinier to make them into gift ... View Post
