I made this card for Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge 402.
All the patterned paper is from Graphic 45's Little Darlings, a beautiful paper pack. I stamped Rubbernecker's Single Leaf Rose 16157 twice with Tuxedo Memento Black, Once on a Spellbinders Oval, colored it up with Copics, and sponged around the while it still in the die with Ranger's Antique Linen Distress ink. Then stamped it again on scrap card stock, coloring and cutting out only the leaf and the flower. I adhered the blossom directly over the image and popped up the leaf with pop dots. Popped it up over a Spellbinders Lacey Oval that had been sponged with Adirondack Watermelon Ink and added a Melon Seam Binding bow that I purchased from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
I did some sponging on the papers edges with Antique Linen, Peeled Paint and Watermelon. The sentiment is Rubbernecker's Feel Better Wishes Rubbernecker's Feel Better Wishes 652-11. I cut up a ZVA Creative Flourish up and only used parts of it, saving some for another project. I added some Lime Green Stickles dots to the green patterned paper and a couple to the sentiment.

El dahling, you've gone global! Holy smokes, you're of international fame. Look at all the international comments above. I knew it wouldnt take long before the whole world of artists discovers you! Your work is really an art. This card is dramatic and touching at the same time with the color palette and design. We're all in agreement, El. Your work is extraordinary! Take a day off and move beyond your craft studio ~ I would be very interested to see what kinds of creative things you do when not making internationally reknown cards! Hugs my sweet friend. Over and Out.
