Remarkable You Magnolia

For the second card creation in this SU set I chose the magnolia image. I wanted my image to be the focus of the card and therefore opted for a white canvas, no fuzzy cutting.

The flower was coloured using Copics in warm pink tones. I added a shadow with warm gray and faded it out using pointillism.

The light gray card front was embossed with a leafy background and the flower image was mounted on a matching pink before adhering to a lacy white square. 

The card was finished with a simple hello die and some matching pink ribbon.

I actually just purchased that ribbon last week at my local Dollarama. I knew I had very limited pink embellishments, especially ribbon and when I saw this multi coloured striped one I had to have. I am amazed at how well it matched the Copic colour I currently own )I used it in my next card as well).
