It is Thursday and that means it is time for a new challenge at the Creative Knockouts Challenge Blog.  This week's theme challenge is Flower Power.  Our sponsor is SheepSkiDesigns and if you enter you have the chance to win 3 images from the shop.  

I used image Tulips - image no 216 to create my card.

Flower Power Card Recipe

SheepSkiDesigns is one of my favorites because they have so many beautiful flower images.  I cannot get enough of the flower images.  I was inspired by the sample card for this particular tulip design.  Go to their site and you will see what I am talking about.  I LOVE a black and white card with a pop of color.  I used Tombow markers to color the image.  I printed 2 of the images.  I colored all the flowers and the vase gray on the one for the card.  On the extra image, I colored several flowers red and then fussy cut them.  I popped those up on the same flower on the gray image.  This gives those beautiful red tulips such dimension.  I added 3 crystals in red.  The thanks sentiment came from My Favorite Things.  I inked around the edges of the white cardstock so it blended into the background.  I also colored in light gray around the image to give the image more definition.
