colored flowers and leaf image with the white 101 Faber-Castell Pitt artist pen. 
cut one flower out to layer; used gelatoes and paint brush to color.
embossed the blue background with embossing folder, rubbed white gelatoe on top a little bit. hand punched a butterfly; die cut: Thanks. The picture really didn't do anything for it! It really doesn't look horrible....in real life! I took another picture but because of internet speed glitches, I don't have the time or patients to reload another picture; so this will have to do! sorry! but thanks for looking!

I used my slice!  I get very frustrated using it, sometimes it works,

sometimes it does not!    The "finished"card  is a tad messy....but it was fun playing with different product!  Inkagold, distress inks etc.
