I've taken a slightly different approach to my colouring on this image, choosing some very pale, subtle colours for the flower and not layering the ink as many times as I usually do. I've coloured with a mixture of Promarkers and Flexmarkers, using some of the beautiful pale Flexies alongside some more vibrant Pros. The image was die cut with a nestie using the out of the box technique and layered onto another die cut circle.
The patterned paper is Pink Petticoat Vintage rose in my favourite colour combination of pink and green. Most women get married in white or ivory, I got married in pink and green!
The punch around the page set is Martha Stewart and works well with almost any floral image.
The sentiment was done with a Kanban ticket stamp and a Personal Impressions thank you stamp.
The layered flowers were made with a Woodware punch with pink Stickles and a gem in the centre. The leaves were also made with a Woodware punch.
Some green organza and pink gingham ribbon, an organza bow and a few pink gems finish it off.
