Today I have made a card with a recently acquired stamp set from Spellbinders called loves me, loves me not. I stamped it in the corner of a piece of Strathmore Toned Gray paper. I then proceeded to colour it with my Polychromos.
You can't see it on the photo but I went over the stamped outline with a Gelly Roll sparkle pen in green on the leaves and stalks and in purple on the flowers. It does have a lovely sparkle when moved in the light. I blended some white pencil behind the flowers and some weathered wood distress ink around the edges of the paper, finishing off with a few gina k. crystalline drops. I heat embossed the Hello in white.
I am sorry you can't see the sparkle as it makes all the difference on the finished card.

The tone grayed paper complements the pretty flowers, which are so very pretty Hilary x.
Gorgeous card Hilary, those flowers are so pretty and look wonderful against the toned gray paper xx
It's a lovely card! And I can see the drops, not the sparkle indeed, however I can imagine how it looks like in real....
A delightful CAS card with the lovely Daisy image Hilary.
