Next I began coloring with my Y17 Copic® marker. Then added Y21. For the stems, I used YG25. Then shaded with YG95. After coloring, I cut out the image. Next I used my Spellbinders™Labels Four die template to cut and emboss Pure Luxury Ivory card stock, then sponged with Gina K Fresh Asparagus ink. Then sponged using Gina K Innocent Pink ink. I stamped one of the foliage images using Gina K Innocent Pink ink. I cut and embossed a piece of the Petals and Wings pattern paper using Spellbinders Elegant Labels 4, using Gina K Innocent Pink. Then cut another piece of Petals and Wings pattern paper and sponged the edges using Gina K Innocent Pink ink. I cut and embossed Pure Luxury Ivory using a Spellbinders Charmed I'm Sure die template, then sponged with Gina K Fresh Asparagus. And stamped the sentiment using Memento Espresso Truffle. I assembled the layers onto an Ivory card front, attached a bow and added the tag. Thanks for visiting. I hope you have a fabulous day!
