This is a NBUS Stamp from Penny Black and I thought it looked a little like the the flowers on the cake. I wanted to use an idea from the Mask-erade Online Card Class and do an emboss resist so after coloring the flowers with Inktense pencils, I used my embossing pen over them and clear embossed. I inked the background with Peacock Feathers DI and added a few sequins (mainly because there was a boo boo and I needed to cover it.) You can see that I didn't do a perfect job with the embossing pen as some of the DI is on the blossoms. The sentiment from PB is stamped in charcoal.
I often forget about the "Anything Goes" challenges but I'll remedy that when I send my card to Addicted to Stamps and Simon Says Wednesday.
Thanks for stopping by. Your visits and comments are truly appreciated.

This is a wonderful card, and I like how you mimicked the blue of the cake and the flowers.
So pretty, Bobby! The flowers do look like the ones on the cake and I love the inked background - it looks like another great OCC class.
WOW! You've captured the colours and images from the photo beautifully. DI on some of your flowers? Not from where I'm sitting; only amazing prettiness!
