I wanted to use white on red but wasn't sure the craft ink would look good with such a fine image. So I used real red on shimmery white. The shimmer doesn't really show up but it's 'close enough'!
I haven't totally decided but I may cut 'diamonds' out of the sides of the card to match the cut of the white panel, just for a little extra dimension.
Of course, a great vase needs flowers and I have a friend whose birthday is coming up this weekend!
Thanks for looking!
