Cathy(cathymac) asked us to use flowers on our "April showers...May flowers" cards for today. No problem here...I love using flowers as my main motif often.
This was an experiment of sorts. I had previously created the Gelli print, so it was well-dried. I knew I could stamp on it, but didn't know about heat embossing or using Copics(hate to ruin those tips...even tho' you can buy replacements). All went well. I did come back and shade some of the individual flower petals with white acrylic on a brush.

Your gelli print came out looking scrumptious, Sallie! Beautiful white and black contrast, and I like how your ef mimics your pretty flower; this all flows so well~
