Audrie's inspiration challenge this week has us going to a site called petals. Amazing flower arrangements for anyone's style. This is the one that caught my eye... http://www.petals.com/white-silk-flo...=ASC&viewAll=1
This is done with my favorite white ink. Started first by taking the green cardstock and making the background by watercoloring with a darker colored ink....meadow moss. Let it dry and sketched with a B6 nib and the white ink. Added some flowers with a brush using the ink. This card will be going to Brenda our favorites leader who makes the favorite thread happen every week-end. She is having shoulder surgery on the 19th. Thanks, Brenda for all you do behind the scenes. TFL

This is pure gorgeous, Linda! Your white ink painting on the dark card stock is so striking, the contrast is just fantastic. You accomplished beautiful shading against that terrific background. LOVE IT!!
