The panel and additional flower is made by smooshing JuiseyArt inks and Distress Inks, allowing to dry and stamping over; Copics are used to add shadows to flower. I fussy cut the flower and used 3Dfoam to pop it up. The centre is highlighted in gold pen and the berries & acorns in white gel pen. Sentiment embossed and gold cord tied around. Matted onto lemon textured card, then onto black base card.
When I was finished I thought maybe I should have done gold embossing to go with the gold cord, and could have easily put another on top with gold embossing. I decided not to as I like the not-matchy-matchy thing, and think it adds a bit of zing and I like unpredictable!

Carol... this card feels like a wonderful abstract painting to me. I love the design. Thanks for sharing your creativity with Just Us Girls.
Your smooshed background gave a soft feel to your image, Carol, and then you popped up the flower as a focal point which really brought the scene to life. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Just Us Girls.
Beautiful image and your background is perfect. Thanks so much for sharing with this month’s “I Soy With My Littke Eye” challenge.
