This is my first time submitting a card for the Paper Players Challenge #82. The colors for this challenge are Poppy Parade, Pool Party, Very Vanilla and Soft Suede. I substituted Calypso Coral for the Poppy Parade and Whisper White for the Very Vanilla in today's card. I used a masking technique to place the darling cherub perfectly within the heart. Hope you enjoy today's card! Wish me luck!

Other fun stuff: Using the VersaMark marker (#100901) I lightly filled in the cherub's wings and then added some Iridescent Ice (#101930) embossing powder and heat set with my Heat Tool (#100005) for a light shimmer effect to the wings (doesn't show up too well in the photo but its quite nice) and last but not least I added a little depth by sponging around the white cardstock piece using a finger Sponge Dauber (#102892) and some more of the Calyspo Coral ink.
