Heather, yet again another fabulous video. Sometimes I think I’ve seen it all (worldly person that I am ;)), and you add your twist – the perfect toned background for your water-coloring – and it’s brand new again. Your great videos just keep getting better and better each time you do one. (There really isn’t anywhere to go up from here, you know.) Thanks again for sharing your amazing talent!

Heather always finds a way to keep kraft and fine linen seeming new and fresh. Such a lovely card – and I appreciated seeing how quickly the watercoloring actually went. I’m going to give it a try for sure!
