Ok so my Gina K's set "A year of the Flower" was still out on my work table from yesterday, see what I get for not putting things away, I play with them again and again!!!
This was made for Todays" Sketch challenge" at SCS, I used the same poinsettia and leaf I just stamp it with Basic black ink on some pattern type paper that I thought was Christmas looking. Cut all images out and then sewed on some small beads to the middle of flower, pretty green ones. Then Attached with pop dots ,added some Stickles and gel pen highlights to everything...
Ok... You have always heard me taking about my white gel pen and yes I just love it so... but only one brand! I have brought lots of them but this is the best one to use "EVER"... Its so smooth and so so white and it does not bleed or fade once you have applied it, it stays really really white!! It's basically the most PERFECT GEL PEN of all time. DRUM ROLL PLEASE.........
( Signo ) white gel pen
Just in cast you wanted to know ,but: SHHHH Don't tell Anyone I don't want to let my secret out!!!!
Happy Day to all ENJOY

Big sigh Erin, your card is superb! I would never have thought to stamp the flower on the paper like that and the effect is stunning. Such a strking and beautiful card! I've noted your pen choice and I do like the bright white it gives on your cards. I will have to see if I can track one down over here. I'm currently using an inksentials white gel pen which isn't too bad but does fade a bit. Thanks for the info, sorry, you're secret is out LOL! Chris x
