Flower is two layers, colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, and took forever to cut them out. I added a bit of sponged red ink around the edges. I popped up the front layer and put glitter in the center.

Gosh, I never saw that vase. Thanks for bringing it to my attention via this amazing card - all that gold embossing and not a speck of powder out of place, and the fantastic pop of the flower.

It's a masterpiece, Melody! Your gold embossing is so clean and perfect, and I love the pop of red with your gorgeous bloom. So very beautiful and elegant!
