Hi! This card was made for today's Limited Supply Challenge: The First Day of Spring!
The Limits were Soft Subtles colors and a Spring Flower/bulb. I chose Daffodil! I LOVE daffodils! So does Speedy the Cat! When they bloom in my garden, he sits on the back of the couch and watches them every afternoon!
The image was stamped on watercolor paper in VersaMark and embossed in Gold. Next, I colored in the image with SU! markers and used an aqua painter to blend. I stamped an additional image, colored it, cut it out and layered it.
The frame is a Spellbinders frame. I cut it, embossed it and used a dauber to highlight the embossed areas.
The base of the card was stamped various times with the flower head image and embossed in gold.
