This is my last VLVMay2012 sketch - this time week 5 and combined with the Penny Black monochrome challenge.  This card was mailed out today to a very dear friend who I hope to meet up with next week.

I stamped the image twice with Memento Rich Cocoa before cutting it out with this lovely Spellbinders die.  I sponged the card whilst it was in the die with Antique Linen distress ink.  I then coloured the flowers with various shades of brown Copics.  Adhesive cream pearls were added to a few stamens and the image was mounted with foam pads onto the background panel.
