Hero Arts Magnolia is Flower Power at A2Z

Be sure to visit A2Z Scrapbooking for the April Challenge.

This simple flower makes a tremendous statement when even lightly colored.  I chose an ombre paper shading into the upper part of the top panel and stamped off the paper.  The only colors I used were Copic markers BG0000 and B21 in the inner part of the flower and on the inward outer tips of the flowers.  I thought it had a soft feel to it.  This would have been a nice panel for a sympathy card too.

The dots of Nuvo Midnight Blue cover two dots of black ink.  I think they fit quite well.  There is almost no card that you cannot save.

The addition of Fired Brick to the Fossilized Amber makes the flowers look like they are partially in shade.
