Hi! This card was made for today's Ways To Use It Challenge: Crazy for Copics. If we didn't have Copic Markers, and I don't, we were allowed to use other markers and blend them!
Speedy the Cat hid this stamp set under the bath mat last evening...Our entire neighborhood was blacked out last night for over 5 hours! It was HORRIBLE! We all went to bed and that was that...Until the lights came back on around 2AM and EVERY LIGHT in the house was on! When I went to turn off the bathroom light I saw Speedy the Cat's choice for today and went back to bed! LOL!
I stamped three images in Versa mark and embossed in gold. I used SU! markers and colored in the flowers, using Apricot Appeal in the center and the outlines were done in Ruby Red. Then, I used an aqua pen and blended. Next, I went over the edges with a Black marker. The images were cut out and curled with a bone folder.
I added dots with a marker. The background was run through the Cuttlebug. I added black gemstones.

Beautifully done Faith, it hasn't been your week has it. First the canoe incident and now the lights, whatch out things are always in threes.
I love the way you used these flowers from the new set, the colors are so vibrant. I love the way you did the ribbon and those black gems are gorgeous.
