WOW! Just WOW! Reinkers gave you that intense color and shading? Julie, this is unreal! You are off the charts in artistic talent. Love the composite of stamps you created, not an easy thing to do. Incredible artwork!

Thanks Nancy! I used the Stampin' Markers (scribbled onto my craft mat) and then use an AquaPainter to apply to the image. Some of the shadows are from the actual marker as well, then dilute with the AquaPainter (making sure not to wet the Whisper White too much) :-) Thanks again for your sweet comment- hugs to you, my friend!!

I'm imagining this card is interactive somehow - it's just so fascinating to look at. I love Gary's artwork with all its intricacies. All your background panels and the different textures you've used pull together in a beautiful way - the mixture of greens is just perfect. Thank you so much for making a sample for me, and for being a hostess this week! Hope you've had fun!

Thanks Dina- I had a great time creating this card as well as hostessing for the first time!! This card is a bit interactive (with a modified gatefold design) and the banners were a last minute add-on but are definitely darker Cherry Cobbler IRL (vs the bright red they appear on my screen-lol!)... Thanks again for hostessing this fun challenge- hugs, my friend!!
