For my card today, I'm combining 4 Splitcoast Challenges...Inspiration Challenge (IC500), I chose THIS for the colors, Free For All (F4A280, Mixability (MIX127) & the Sketch (SC547).
ETA: I have no idea why the direct link doesn't work here..it works perfectly on my blog. Here's the general page, hope it works! THIS
Whew! Can't believe I combined all those! Only took me HOURS! After I stamped 3 of the roses images, they were all colored w/ Copics & fussy cut. I used just the center of one of the roses, shaped it & popped it up in the center of the rose on the right.
The blue frame was made on watercolor paper using water colors then streaked & splatter with gold acrylic paint. When dry, I die cut it to make the frame. The white layers are the inside dies of the same Lacey Layered Square die set. The greeting was stamped, the cut flowers added & the diamond shaped brad for the Free for All challenge.
Congrats on #500 for the IC!! Thanks so much for looking! Closeups + a mini tutorial showing step by step how I colored the roses + a comparison I did on overstamping using my new Misti! All on my blog: The Write Stuff

Beautiful flowers, Julie! Pretty card. I clicked on your inspiration link and got a msg that the image couldn't be found. Thought you might want to check it? Could be my "old" computer dinking around. Hee.
