Lovely Lattice, Dandelion Wishes, 2019 Sale-a-Bration, Get Well Card

 I found this fun card on the internet.  I did change it a little because I didn't like how the markers bled through the card stock.  

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Whisper White card stock. On top of that I used a 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" piece of Fresh Fig. I was going to use the Rich Razzleberry but I wanted something darker to bring out the darkness of the center of the Rich Razzleberry flowers.

I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock 4" x 5-1/4".  I stamped the image from the "Lovely Lattice" 2019 Sale-a-Bration set using black Memento ink. 

I colored the flowers in using Daffodil Delight, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive light and dark blends pens.  I also used the Soft Sea Foam to color in the lattice part of the image plus to color around the flowers.  On the original card the light Smoky Slate was used.  Mine is on back order so I thought the Soft Sea Foam would do the trick and it was just subtle enough to work! When I got done coloring I had looked on the back side of the coloring and didn't like what I saw. SO that is when I realized I would have to trim it and layer it.

The words are from the "Dandelion Wishes" set. I stamped them using black Memento ink. 

I colored three pearls using the dark Daffodil Delight Blends pen.  I set them in place on the card front.

I taped the layers together and the card was done. 

It was a fun card to make and this is the type of coloring I like to do!

Thank you SO much for stopping by today,
Wanda

ok, so this may sound strange, but if you have one that you don't care for much on the front, the bleed through has an interesting look on it's own. just an idea.
