A few details about my card. I stamped my image in green (bamboo leaves-memento ) I then used Prisma colored pencils over the green on the blossoms in a pink. The butterflies were colored with Copic's and cut out. All card stock is from MFP. I added some green Smooch to accent some of the green.


If you get a chance check out the fabulous creations of the design team .
