A challenge card again

Hello bloggers,


I have been colouring up some of the lovely digis from A Passion for Stamps and this little beauty, called "Acidanthera"  really spoke to me, so I wanted to make it stand out on a card.
Here is my project:


I coloured the image with Copics (YG67, 63, 61 for greens, N3, 1, 0 and BV000 for the "white", V99 Y23, 17 for centres) and cut it out with a scalpel. I cut and embossed a Labels Five in light purple and distressed it with Seedless Preserve while still in the die. Sentiment is by Papertrey ink and paper is My Mind's Eye, Lime twist "Happy go lucky together dotty".


I am entering this into the following challenges:
The Crazy Challenge - No. 107 Use a die or punch
Allsorts Challenge - Week 142 Anything goes
Cute Card Thursday - No 204 Flower Power
