I love this idea of something other than white for a CAS background. I'd been seeing some cards using Finetec iridescent watercolors on black cardstock and really loved the look. Of course, I didn't have the Finetec paints, though. But a good friend recently won a raffle basket full of stationery goodies, including a set of 100 gel pens. And because she's SUCH a good friend, she immediately split up the pack and told me to take whatever I wanted. This card is for her. I used a mix of the glitter pens and neons and saved myself at least $35 on the paints. Whew! Thanks for looking.

Very cool card with that dramatic black bg and the bright colors for the flowers. I really like the gold arrows on the side...interesting detail. And what a nice friend splitting up her gel pen winnings!!

Striking and beautiful. Love the bright colors and the gold embossing. The image is so pretty. Nicely done with the curve and the gold embossed paper. This is an excellent thank you for your friend. TFS
