How I created the card was to cut some Kraft card stock for the card and using the Hero Arts, Magical Background stamp, inked with Colorbox Ink, Frost White I stamped the entire front of the card and set aside to dry. Next, taking white card stock, I stamped the Hero Arts, Circle Design several times and coloured the main petals of the images and cut each individual piece out, adhering each petal to a 1 3/4 inch circle punched circle of card stock and adding a brad through the centre to finish, I then attached this to the card using foam dimensionals. Taking a piece of red card stock I used the Martha Stewart Punch, Arch Lattice and punched along one edge of the card stock, adhering it to the card, adding a sentiment that was stamped onto white card stock and adhered to the top of the red card stock. Lastly, added some twine above the sentiment, red rhinestones either side of the sentiment and dusted more white ink along the edges of the card to soften.
Here are the Copics I used to colour the petals:

Here are the products used to create the card:

So I am off to watch some TV and surf the net.
