My card features a beautiful stamp by Pink and Main. I had so much fun coloring this stamp - I made two cards.
I also decorated the back flap of the envelope...
The envelope I colored with Copics and got a fairly close match.
This next card I decided to try a technique that I saw on You Tube. I honestly can't remember if it was Jennifer McGuire or Effie with The Ton stamps that I saw this technique. The image was messily colored and then sprayed with water. I grabbed the bottle of water that had Perfect Pearls in the bottom so I didn't realize until I started spraying that I'd have shimmer, too. I made a mess, so I had to cover it up with gray around the image and it turned out soooo cool! The sentiment is a hello die by Pink and Main and the "friend" is also from Pink and Main.
I did the envelope, too, but I messed up a little and didn't make sure it was in the same spot in the MISTI when I double stamped so it came out a little blurry.

3 Encouraging Thoughts:
Both are gorgeous, I especially love the subtle shading and that you used it on the sentiment strips as well...makes such a difference!
I think both of these came out beautiful Melissa!! Isn't it great when a mistake comes out better than it was supposed to be in the first place??!!
Both cards are WOW factors with your amazing coloring skills! I can't pick a favorite, but I love the envie as much as the cards! Well done!
