THE OUTLAWZ: FRIDAY COPIC/PROMARKER CHALLENGE

This week's challenge at The Outlawz Copics/Promarker challenge is "FLOWERS"

To inspire you, here is my easel card, using a Doodle Pantry image "Agapanthus Flower", that I coloured using Copics:


Once coloured, I cut out the image using a round die, and then mounted that onto a round diecut that has scallops:


As you can see, I added a few dabs of Stickles for some shine:
i sewed on some sequins and beads around the diecut, and then mounted onto a lilac CS background.  A diecut butterfly was adorned with a gem and added to the flower.

The base of my card is made up of an image of an agapanthus flower.
The 'stop' for the easel card is a die cut flower, a button and some silver cord.
The peel of sentiment reads 'Best Wishes'

Here is that link to the challenge group.  Remember - your creation must contain flowers and be coloured with alcohol based markers.

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:
