This flower was one of my practice ones from the recent Copic Markers for Cardmakers class I took. I cut it out to use on a card, then had to try and match the colors to cardstock I had! I ended up using my second-most hated SU color - Garden Green. For the record, my most hated SU color is Rich Razzleberry - sorry, lovers of Rich Razzleberry and Garden Green :)
Anyway, I couldn't find a matching yellow so decided to make my own by using the Direct to Paper technique with Squeezed Lemonade ink. Not a bad match!
The sentiment was white embossed and came out a bit blotchy for some reason - maybe my Versamark pad needs re-inking. The little scallop was cut using the large scallop frame from Simon Says Stamp's frames dies. The flowers and leaves were painted with Wink of Stella.
So, after all that, thanks for visiting and make sure you check out the inspiration from the rest of the Design Team.

Not a Garden Green fan either but you definitely made it work! Your flower is gorgeous!
Simply beautiful Karren - your colouring is perfect. Lol I'm not a fan of GG either, but it certainly looks good here! x
Amazing card Karren! Love those yellow flowers! They are so cheery and are so beautifully coloured! Looks like you aced that class! The green is a great coordinating colour! I can't believe you hate Rich Razzleberry...that's almost shameful!
This is absolutely gorgeous and I would hardly call it practice. You look like you've mastered the whole coloring thing! And I sort of agree with you about the colors. I don't hate Garden Green but it's so blah I don't see the point in having it and Rich Razzleberry is downright weird. :)
That's really elegant! I love it, simple and beautiful! Compliment!
Greetings! Ellen ❤️

Ok, so you actually made this green look great! I pulled it out a few weeks ago and no. Not so much! Such a pretty flower. Perfect for the sketch!
