This time I wanted to draw a different flower, to be painted in one color and I wanted it to have an elegant appearance. Then I drew this very simple and stylish flower© that looks like a cone-flower with few leaves. I also draw a couple flourishes to make the sketch more interesting.
For this card I printed the drawing twice to give the flower a 3D effect. I outlined the sketch with the Perfect Medium pencil, Bullet, from Ranger and used copper embossing powders, which gave the picture a beautiful sheen. I also used a glossy designer paper that highlights the little flowers. The ornament on the right was made with Bazzill cardstock and painted with glitter paint. Finally, I added three brown rhinestones that brings to the card a very elegant luster.
