Impression Obsession DT Challenge: Hearts and Flowers

The Impression Obsession team's challenge today is to create a card using hearts and/or flowers. If you look around you may see some new Valentine or upcoming Spring images. I LOVE this release!!

I chose one of Alesa Baker's new images called Worn Rose Branch - I stamped it in Memento Pear Tart, and used Touch Twin Markers to add color to the roses and leaves. The colors I used are below. I also used a marker to color the ribbon - since I don't want to travel with lots of ribbon, I have just gotten different types of white ribbon (satin, wire-edged, organza, seam binding), and am using markers to color it when I need to. I love that versatility!The image is stamped on a Twinchie Square from Inchie Arts. These are the Touch Twin Markers that I used.... instead of using a light, medium and dark shade for each color, I just used light and dark and practiced blending tip-to-tip.
