    The black and white background makes everything just jump off the page I really like that. The colour on the flower is amazing.

    I love what you did with the flower. Is it sponged?

      Hi Rosalie
      Yes I stamped the flower with Versamark Ink Pad and embossed it with White Embossing Powder - heat to set of course, Then using daubers sponged the colors by dabbing the ink pad and sponging in circular motion. Just kept adding color till I was happy with it. I used Stampin Write marker for the stem as it is so narrow, I did my sponging first then fuzzy cut the flower out. I actually have done two layers of flowers to make it pop, added the second layer(just the main flower part and leaves with dimensionals.) Angexxoo

      Thanks Tamie, you are too kind. It has become my favourite technique just have to be careful I don't use it all the time but just loving it at the moment. If you wanted to know how I did it this is it:
