Guest Designer STAMPlorations sketch #28

Good afternoon all.

As my card was a top pick in sketch challenge #25 the lovely Shery from STAMPlorations emailed and offered me the opportunity to guest design today...of course I very quickly said yes!

I'm very new to Shery's stamps having found and joined the stamp club in December but so far the service has been second to none and delivery is very quick considering it's crossing the pond!

Here is my card:

Base card is old gold pearlised card stock, the white layer has been paper pricked down the edges with a ruler (first time I've used it for what it was bought for!) and attached with foam tape. 

I've used stamps from the Bloom Sketches set. I've stamped and heat embossed (with white detail EP) the flower three times, coloured with distress ink pens then layered it up. I think this is probably the first time I've actually coloured with these pens and I've had them since they were new out! Perhaps I'll get them out to play again soon. The sentiment was also part of the stamp set.

Card was simply finished with some gems.
