This card is my first one made using Copic markers. I don't have very many, but I love (am already addicted to) them. I need a lot more practice, but I had so much fun coloring today...colored this image 3 times before I could use one. This card will go to some friends that have been sharing good things from their garden.
This is for today's Sketch Challenge 346. I had a big surprise this morning when I saw that Roxie had used an old card of mine as a sample. Woo Hoo! Thanks, Roxie!

Beautiful job with the sunflower colors and I like the distressing with them...if this weren't already an SC layout I'd use it...
Thanks for the great layout, I enjoyed working with it!

Great card and I would say you did a fantastic job coloring with copics your first time. The flowers are very realistic! TFS

BOTH your cards are fantastic! I love a lot about this one, but I think the thing that just made me hit the floor with a 'how brilliant!' thought was how you layered the ric rac over the grosgrain ribbon. TFS!

You could teach coloring with Copics...this is gorgeous. I love the distressed edges. A beautiful card...as usual. You really have a unique talent.
