Well this started out to be a card inspired by our very talented queen Jody (Jodylb) (QFTD25. I loved this card here: MIX112 Spring Flowers by jodylb at Splitcoaststampers
and at first did my rose with white pigment ink like she did. Then I colored with distress markers and then painted over the colors with a combo of water and shimmer spritz - ooh, what a pretty subtle shimmer it created. Then I embossed the sentiment in white so it would show up better, but then the white pigment ink looked so drab next to the white embossing! So, I ended up going over the rose in white gel pen also and liked it better. Matted it and was good to go, till I saw today's challenge and then thought hey- that would add an interesting detail. So, out came the gel pen again, and then finally done! Linking to TLC530 (hand drawn lines) also.
Jody - thanks for the inspiration and I LOVE, LOVE your gallery. Enjoy your "reign", I may be back.....
