Jana *Day 2*

Attention----If you are here for the Hero Arts blog hop, you can see my post by clicking HERE (or scrolling down).
Woweeeeeee! Thanks to everyone who visited and commented yesterday for the Hero Arts blog hop! What a thrill! :)

Here is our next card by Jana:
This is just the sweetest card! Jana's coloring and shading is so smooth! I love the red of the flowers with the blue of the vase. And the dimension on the flowers is such a wonderful detail! Finally, that little bit of twine is a textural and charming finishing touch.
Here is my take:
The flower image was stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Copic Express paper. The flowers were colored with Copics and then this portion of the card was lightly distressed with Pumice Stone Distress Ink. The green background was created by applying Forest Moss and Peeled Paint Distress Ink on white cardstock.
I also wanted to share a video for a simple card that I did for my LSS, Mementos. You can see the video HERE.
