Stunning card! So beautifully you played your marbled background with flowers from a template and flowers painted with crayons. It looks so amazing and I love the strong color accent.

WOW! You blew my mind on this one. After my Google fest for Suminagashi I’m still confused. I don’t know how you did this even though I read it but you are way ahead of me! This is incredible, particularly the background and framing of your blossoms. I can’t believe you used silver over black with such opacity. Amazing work and brilliant execution! You may have to do videos (grin).

This is truly a WOW! card Christine! LOVE the marbled background and the 3D look of a popped up rectangular panel. The stenciling over top adds some lovely soft colours. Then that hit of red with the flower branch. Gorgeous! Love the colours and amazing colouring skills with your pencils! xx
