I think I might have gotten a little carried away with this one. I started adding flowers and I couldn't seem to stop myself. I wanted to make a masculine card for a relative who has an incurable illness so the Kind Koala stamp set seemed to be a good choice because of his young age. Somewhere along the way the card took on a feminine look. I'll have to start all over on another card for him.
I used the Just-Add-Ink Sketch Challenge #300 to start my card. The card stock and inks used were from The Color Tree Challenge #8 ... Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron, Whisper White, and Gold. I used my Gold Wink of Stella brush to color the Koala Bear because it was the only gold I had. I also added a touch of gold to the wings of the butterfly from the Papillon Potpourri stamp set. I also added a touch of gold on the letters of 'YOU'.
I stamped the blades of grass from the Inspired by Nature stamp set... I still love this stamp set.

Dragonfly Thanks
I stamped the flowers twice (You've Got This stamp set) on Very Vanilla card stock using Basic Black ink, then cut out three extra flowers to pop up on top of the ones stamped on my Very Vanilla panel. I colored the centers of the flowers using my gold Wink of Stella pen and colored the leaves in Mint Macaron. Even though it's hard to see, I colored the flowers with the Wink Of Stella glitter pen. I stamped the dragonfly (Awesomely Artistic stamp set) in Soft Suede, cut it out, then covered it in embossing ink to add stability and shine to it. I stamped the sentiment (An Open Heart) in Mint Macaron. I Used my Apothecary Accents Framelits to add my sentiment at the top of the card.
