My card uses the new image Hydrangea...

Here is Dad appreciating it...

I printed the image and coloured it with a collection of markers, cut it out with a scalloped die and added picked raspberry distress ink around the edges.

I layered this on pink card and added it to a white scalloped card blank, which had been matted with purple card and then layered with a paper that I had printed on the computer with distress ink around the edge.
