Over at the Allsorts Challenge (#817) - Liz has set a 'Shades of Blue' theme (or you can enter under the 'Anything Goes' option).
I like to rise to the challenge of the theme, so I have a card to share that is in shades of blue - which just happens to be my favourite colour - so it's a great theme for me to play along with.
I used a sparkly silver Signo pen to add interest around the petals - but it doesn't show up very well in the main picture, so I angled it to try and catch the light better in the photo below.

| Attempting to show you the glittery shine of the Signo pen! |
Details:
- Light blue snippet of SU Designer Paper, dry embossed and stuck to the left hand side of the card.
- Penny Black "Whispers" (3377K) stamped in SU Night of Navy ink. Coloured using a waterbrush and SU Pool Party and Night of Navy inks.
- Signo silver glitter gel pen used to highlight the flowers (see second photo).
- Heffy Doodle Stitched Rectangle die used to cut the focal image from a white snippet. The image was stuck to the card front with foam pads for a little dimension.
A lovely card and such a pretty floral panel.

This card is absolutely stunning! The delicate floral design in shades of blue is both elegant and captivating. The embossing adds a wonderful texture, and the sparkle on the flowers gives it that extra special touch.
