A flower for you

Hi everyone, a card for Dutch Dare where the challenge this week is a colour combination of pink, black and purple. I've used a Pink Petticoat image download (I'm addicted to these) which I've coloured with markers and a purple sparkly gel pen. The paper behind the image is also PP and is a leopard print in purple and black, this and the image are matted on purple bazzil card. I've embossed the card base with the CB Swirls folder, added the purple ribbon and some doodling to finish. TFL.

Back soon,
Chris
