Happy February! We have a new challenge over at The Flower Challenge and this month its:
We are also welcoming Jyoti Adhikari joining our little team. And our Guest Designer this month is the Sathya please check out her blog/Instagram if you have a minute as she makes such fabulous cards.
For my card this month, I used the Altenew Engagement Wish Bundle that I bought last month. What can I say except it was on sale and its hard to pass up a beautiful bloom on sale lol.

I started out by embossing the flower with some WOW! Embossing that I mixed using In the Navy, Gold Rich, and Glisten. I gave the flower a pretty gold with Navy look.

I then colored up the flower with some Zig markers and die cut it out. I used a separate card base and stamped the leaves in”In the Navy” as well as the sentiment.

I then took a line stamp and stamped above and below the sentiment and heat embossed it with the same mixture I created.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week and have a chance to play along with our new challenge!

Ericka, I always admire your ability to color big, beautiful flower images and this card is no exception.
The embossing looks gorgeous against the fabulous colors you chose, die-cutting the flower gives your card beautiful depth and dimension.
Stay healthy and safe.
