I started with a Basic Black card base and added a layer of Textured Cameo Coral. It's followed by a scrap piece of Bali Breeze dp (also layered on Basic Black cs).
I then went to work on the main panel. First I sponged on my sky with Baja Breeze ink. (Here's a link to Jeanne's great tutorial. Sponged Sky Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers) Then I stamped the flower with Jet Black StazOn and colored it with my Cameo Coral and Old Olive markers. It's layered on Basic Black cs, too. I didn't feel like adding scallops like the sketch suggests, so I added that AWESOME black Rick Rack. (As you can tell, I really like it. LOL! I think it totally makes the card.)
Anyway, I stamped the sentiment with Basic Black ink on Whisper White cs, punched it out my Small Oval Punch and layered it with a Dimensional on a Large Basic Black Oval.

So pretty! You're right, the coral & black make a great statement together. I love your coloring on the flowers, and that rickrack is a great "scallop"!
