The colours of love mean different things to different people but the most appropriate all-encompassing colours of love to me are rainbow colours.

Ingredients:

TPS B/W Digi : SKYBOUND UNICORN BLISS

Colouring: Copics, White Acrylic Marker & White Gel Pen

Backing paper: POLKADOODLES ‘RAINBOW PAPER’

Digi Sentiment: POLKADOODLES ‘SPARKLE UNICORN’
