Vase of flowers


The last card I made with one of these beautiful images from the LOTV sketch pad sold last week so I wanted to make at least one more before this Saturday's fair. They are so beautiful, though I did find the tiny flowers and stems a bit challenging to colour and found them easier to colour with my glasses off as I am short sighted. Coloured with my Copics, papers are First Edition Dreamcatcher. I've used a Spellbinders floral oval and Cheerly Lynn butterflies with Centura Pearl and pearls so lots of shine and glitter.

Beautiful card Marianne.
You made me laugh with the remark about colouring the flowers!
I am also short sighted and wear glasses but I've noticed that to colour I have to take my glasses off!!
Love this image, very pretty and versatile too, can be used for so many occasions.

Big hugs
