And, the winner will be announced on Tuesday October 30th! The winner will receive Flourishes' Think Pink stamp set along with some other goodies! Click HERE to learn more!
For my card I chose the set Petals and Peace.  I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Flourishes Classic White card stock and colored it with Copic markers.

I cut out the image using a die from the Tailor-Made Classic Keyhole die set and inked inside the die with Wheat ink from a VersaMagic Dew Drop.  I stamped the image on a piece of vellum and popped it up using dimensional adhesive (can’t you see it?!) Argh.  Anyway, I used Christmas Music stamped on Flourishes Classic Ivory card stock
for the background and added a doily also inked lightly with Wheat.    The finishing touch is a beautiful ruffled ribbon – Flat Edge Pleated Trim in Faded Cherry.
The Copic Collections used here is :
Lenten Rose Collection
