The Inspiration photo for this card is in the first post of this link: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I played off the colors, swirls, flowers, round shape that reminded me of the round areas of a Buckeye butterfly, the leaves that reminded me of this thistle flower and the dot formation which inspired the gems. That’s about it as you’re saying “oh shut up already”! Oh I forgot - the plate is round so the scallop scissors were the perfect choice
I did some shading on the white panel edges. All panels but black are stamped with Linen. I colored with watercolor crayons and aqua painter. The gems are adhered with Diamond Glaze. Squiggle lines are freehand and done with gel pen.

the squiggles and flourish are perfect on the edges, love the gems too. I like the way your flower curves to the side, excellent way to capture that movement from the plate image. Very well done!!
