\n <\/a><\/strong>For my Lilac Note, I put the lovely image in my Misti, stamped & colored w\/ Copics. I used Prismacolor pencils to do a light overlay in areas then over stamped it to bring back the details. It was die cut & I had to do a little out of the box<\/strong><\/a><\/span> on the leaves on the left. I had a couple of left over rectangles in 2 shades of purple & I thought they looked nice behind the upper left & helped balance out the composition. I had to finagle the greeting a bit to work around the image & I added a little white gel pen around a loop of the J to help it stand out. A little wink of Stella was added…hard to see here, but shimmery in real life!<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
