This card is all about the paper. When I saw this sheet of Timeless Elegance DSP, I knew I had to “colorize” it. My friend and fellow demo, Deborah Vanderburg, said she had seen the roses spritzed with color. I decided to go a slightly different route and color them with Stampin’ Write Markers and a Blender Pen.
I used Blushing Bride, Soft Sky, So Saffron, Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight, and Pear Pizzazz. All the shading is already there. All I had to do was fill in the color with the markers. I used a Blender Pen with the Daffodil Delight to keep the color on the flower petals subtle. I used all the other markers directly on the paper.
The sentiment, from the Butterfly Basics stamp set, is stamped in black Memento ink. I included this shot because, as I was about to take it, the leaf just happened to fall next to the card.
Here’s what I used:

Thank you, Brian! Coming from a true genius, I consider it high praise indeed.
