Good morning folks, today's card features Harlequin Bouquet, one of this months new releases from Chocolate Baroque. I've got a bit of an addiction for harlequin stamps so I'm sure this one will be a firm favourite. I began by creating the background, I used black texture paste through a harlequin stencil on white card. Once that was dry I distressed with Black Soot distress ink and a craft knife and layered it on black card. I stamped the focal image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with Graph'It Markers.
I cut the image out, distressed with a kraft knife and layered it with 3d foam, adding a bow and paper flower to finish off.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Aud Sentiments: use a love sentiment
Crafting with Friends: Anything goes
Morgans Art World: add flowers
Simply Papercrafts: Anything goes

Well the weekend is here at last so I'm going to venture out for a bit of shopping and do my dog walking duties then it's home to spend the day crafting. Have a lovely day and thanks for popping by

Fancy that... a perfect matching Harlequin stencil! The effect with the cut out bouquet is stunning, like a magnifying glass over the background or a drop of water.
