Double D, Friendship

Good Morning!

A brand new Challenge is up and running over at the Double D Challenge Blog. 



And here's the wonderful Inspiration Tile:  







Here's my creation:  




I started with stamping my pretty Hydrangeas from the Gina K Designs set, Heartfelt Hydrangea, all over my card front panel in Raven Black ink.  Then I colored them  with my Copic Markers.  I left the center empty so I would have a place to stamp my friendship sentiment from Heartfelt Hydrangea and All About You stamp sets.  Once that was all done, I cut the center out using an MFT Stitched Traditional Rectangles die.  This die cut was backed with Fun Foam so it raised it up a bit.  Plus it makes a nice solid feel to the card front.





Sakura Orange Glitter Pen for flower centers and 'randomly' tossed Sequins.

This card will also be entered into the Challenge at The Crop Stop Party #38




Please come on over to the Double D Blog and join in all of the FUN!
You'll be glad you did as there is always a pretty prize up for grabs! 
Here is the FAB prize for this Challenge: 




Thanks for stopping by, friends!

Enjoy~~
