With Love & Caring - Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge 195

This card took me a long time to do as there is a lot of detail in this sketch challenge with Stamping 411 here
but I persisted.  I think I probably fuss too much - a have a touch of perfectionism!!  Anyway, here's the card

.
Stamps:  Fast & Fabulous, Thanks for Caring
Inks: Early Espresso, Old Olive, Watercolor Crayons, Black Stazon
Papers: Early Espresso, Old Olive, Very Vanilla, Pear Pizzazz, Garden Gala Designer Paper
Accessories: Aqua brush, Two Step Bird Punch, Boho Blossom Punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1 3/8" circle punch, Round Scallop punch, 1 1/4" Early Espresso Striped Grosgrain ribbon, 5 Petal punch, rhinestones, dazzling diamonds.

The image was coloured with Watercolor crayons - daffodil delight, old olive, tengerine tango and marina mist. I put some dazzling diamonds in the center of each flower.  The 3D flowers were made using  2 of the flowers from the Boho blossom punch, mounted on a 5 petal punch.  The leaves are from the Two Step Bird Punch. A rhinestone was put in the center of each.
All edges were sponged with Early Espresso ink.
