This card is to honor our newest Queen -- Shadow's Mom (a/k/a Lee-Anne), who is so very generous with her gallery comments. When I saw this card that Lee-Anne made for the Inspiration Challenge last week, it immediately went into my favorites to CASE. I didn't think I'd be CASEing it quite this soon however. What I liked about Lee-Anne's waterlilies was the accent of white over the coloring, on both the water lilies and the lily pads. I often have a problem with white gel pens, so I have used some Copic Opaque White paint for my accents. I made my card an A2 rather than square and added a sentiment and some half-pearls.

What an awesome card, Lois! I love the beautiful warm colors! I've never tried the Copic Opaque white paint but I sure love what it does for an accent on this! Thank you so much for your kind comments, Lois! And thank you for CASEing my card!
