Flirty Flamingo Thank You card

Stamps:  Pop of Paradise and Timeless Texture
Colors:  Flirty Flamingo, Real Red, Wild Wasabi, Soft Sky, and Whisper White
Supplies:  Big Shot, Stitched Shapes framelits, Rhinestones, Scissors, Stamparatus, Whisper White ink pad

I tweaked this card a tiny bit and made it my own.  You can probably tell that I experimented with the shadowing on the leaves; I really like doing shadowing with the Wasabi marker and not the Garden Green I had originally planned to use.  The Garden Green was just too dark.

Happy stamping!
