MMSC22 ~ Chrysanthemuns

Here is my take for this week's Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge 22. I colored Penny Black's Chrysanthemuns with Copic Markers. I used some metallic DMC Embroidery Floss to frame my image. I'm using some brad buddies for my additional embellishments since I wanted to keep my focus on the main image. Cuttlebug Textile Embossing Folder, faux stitching and distressing add some interest to the background panels. Cardstock is SU!

Below is another take on the Chrysanthemun that is simple and so striking.


The embossed card I found in my stash and the ribbon was a RAK. The card is matted on brushed bronze cardstock, so elegant!
