This week's colors were very difficult for me but I gave it my best! I snuck the yellow in with seed beads in the flower centers and in the center of the red flower on the black velvet ribbon. It's also hard to see but I used my Scor-pal to score three vertical lines from top to bottom on either side of the red paper to add dimension and make the black card look not quite so plain.
This is a close up pic of the flowers that I outlined with a Sakura embossing pen. It looks shiny in person.
I have used this stamp a lot with other color combinations. It's a rubber stamp so I use markers for the flowers and the branch and then outline it all after I have a good impression to follow. Rubber stamps are not my favorite stamps to work with but I just loved this design!
