For my card I used a Victorian image that my husband found on the internet. The image was black and white, and he colored it with copics.
I used a metalic paper for the sides that I embossed with a Cuttlebug folder (Textile) and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.
added ribbon and lace trimmed with beads, butterfly sticker, and purchased flower

Holy smokes. What an amazing job he did. I don't think my hubby would even know what a Copic was. I love the pretty embellishment you added. This is amazing.
