Bold and Bright for Fusion

Hi Everyone! 

I could not resist the challenge over at Fusion this week.  Gorgeous inspiration photo, and I had just the stamp for it, one that had not yet seen ink. 


I used both the inspiration and the sketch~

My background, while it looks like watercolor, is actually Copic marker stamped.  I used an oldie but goodie background stamp from SU, colored it with a BG Copic and then spritzed it with alcohol and stamped.  Love how it turned out!  The orchid is from Clearly Besotted.  Yes, I was crazy enough to fussy cut it out.  I was not planning on it originally, but when my first crafty idea was not panning out, I went on to plan B.  :) 
A bit of cheesecloth was added behind the orchid for texture and interest and I had to go with the wonderfully bold white on black sentiment again. 
I am also linking up to Addicted to Stamps and More, 'Holiday',
and MarkerPop's challenge, 'Spring',
and CAS on Sunday-'flowers' 

Thanks so much for visiting! 

Lee Ann  :)
