Thinking of you

This card has taken me a while to create.  When I was playing with making bows, this ribbon made very nice bows on the fork.  I had to find paper and a stamped image that would go with this color ribbon.

I stamped this old Alesa Baker stamp (2002) onto pearlescent cardstock and colored the image with Prismacolor pencils.  I still need to work on my coloring skills.  I'm trying to learn to shade my flowers.  I blended several colors with the Prismacolor Colorless Blender.  Then I had to locate ink and paper to go with the colors.  The base card is just white cardstock.

I also tried to create dimension in my card by popping the sentiment and the image on foam mounting tape.
