I took it the monochromatic route today, and decided to pull out a color CS and paper I haven't used in a long while...plum.
I used a sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches:
Being on the DD design team gives me the opportunity to play with Wendy's images. It stretches me. I did paper piecing, and used some inkpads and my waterbrush to color. The paper is from my CTMH stash. The ribbon is from my stash, too. The pearls are from Hobby Lobby.
I used some Stickles Glitter Glue to sparkle up the image. With the plum color I think it looks rather ~magical~
For once I didn't distress the ribbon with my heat tool. The background paper you see is from Michael's.

Bev, i see you are at two of my dt blogs..and i have to say..your card is really awesome..i love the look of the petals and how they look 3 dimensional..i thought you had pop-dotted the lighter petals..but no it's your coloring that makes them pop! Awesome! Thank you for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches and at Card Crafter's Circle, please come join us again!
