I stamped the rose on Watercolor Paper with versamark and embossed in white. I used a Regal Rose marker and Blender Pen to color it in. The leaves were die cut using the Build A Flower set #2 die. I colored them with Glorious Green marker and an aquapainter but didn't like the end result. I decided to flip them over and let the green show up as a shadow behind the leaves. They were folded in half and run through the crimper for added texture. The swirl panel is Shimmery White cardstock, the base is Whisper White. Both have patterns using the texture plates and Big Shot. All panels and images are adhered with dimensionals.
