I had a lot of fun using one of Priscilla's images.
I have coloured it with...you think I am going to say chalks don't you - but NO, I have used my new Prismacolor Pencils - and I LOVE them! I got sent a set of 75 Prisma's in the post from a generous stampin' sister who wishes to remain anonymous - thank you dear friend, you are so very generous...I can see these will become an addiction!
I printed off two images and after colouring and cutting out, layered the images just slightly, I wanted to add dimension but didn't want it to dominate the card! I added a strip of ribbon and a large eyelet, I wanted to keep a masculine feel to this card!
The panels have been embossed to add texture, I kept to more masculine 'feel' embossing and backed each layer with black, to make it pop. In my opinion the black helps keep each layer defined - it is so easy to have one layer blessing into another when there is more than one pattern.
These flowers - I love all of the detail, I did think the flowers would be harder to colour BUT no - they just happened and I love the look....this looks like flowers I would love to get!!

Yikes, girl, is this ever fantastic. I' ve looked at this image in priscilla's store but I cant really work w/digis. It's obvious they're no issue for you. This is a wonderful image and all the design surrounding it is just fabulous. What a neat card, linda.

What!!!! No chalks - I can't believe it! But you did color it beautifully anyway - you are just a super talented colorer (I know that is not a word). Love that image - super fun.
