Sister Act is sponsoring this week's challenge with a goodie pack! Good luck to everyone who plays along.Penny Black's stamp set, Dahlias is featured in this week' s card. It's available from my Canadian friend, Chelsea's store -The Paper Trail. Chelsea has a great shop in Canada, which has been a fabulous source of supplies for Canadian card makers. She's been loading up the store with marvelous goodies the past few weeks and a brand new website. Chelsea is a fan of the very talented Jennifer McGuire, so I went CAS with my card.
My SIL contributed to the simple part for me by coming over one day and playing around with my Copics. She did a lot of the coloring of the flower. It was a perfectly good flower so rather than throw it away, I added deeper contrast and cut it out for this card! (Thanks, Anette!)
The close up helps zoom in on the image's use of dots rather than lines; I was thrilled to use a Darice eb folder that also used dots! See, you can never have too many eb folders!
