More Inspiration! Because I Care and Elements of Style Thank You

I made this card quite a while ago, but thought I'd share!  This one was inspired by a card that I saw on the Stampin' Up! Demonstrator site.  It is a "Floating Frame" optical illusion.  The layers in the image of this card are only sponged ink!  One of the most useful tools you can use... Post It's (and many were used!) were used to mask off sections while inking.

The flower image was stamped with Marker on Stamp technique using Elegant Eggplant and Old Olive Markers.  The flower was then colored using only a Blender Pen!  No other ink was added to that image!  I then covered the image with Versamarker and heat embossed clear embossing powder overtop - it formed an emboss resist and made the colors pop again (which were faded to a chalk-like finish with the blender pen before the versamark).
