I loved this challenge, I've been looking forward to this new challenge all week! But alas, I cannot get a decent photo of this card tonight! I used some old acrylic paints to make a matte distressed backdrop for my orchids. I stamped in Versamark and heat embossed with detail black ep. Next I colored the stems and flowers with embossing markers that I haven't used for years, and used detail clear ep. They are pleasingly glossy, yet rustic against their background. TFL!
