This card was cut to fit in a business size envelope, No.10. I applied the ink to the stamp with my stylus so I could stamp with the 2 colors. The image came out faint but with the blender pens brought out the green and the crimson colors. Don't be afraid of your blender pens. They really added so much to this card!

Instructions
I used my Colortoolbox stylus to put the ink in the 2 different colors on the stamp. After the rose image was stamped I went back with my blender pens to bring the colors out. They were quite light to start with but the blender pens gave the roses a richness that makes the card. I used just 2 colors and the blender pens darken and lightened the the image where needed. I then stamped the thank you stamp on the same white cardstock and ran the edges along the stamp pad and matted it on Mauve cardstock and ran the mauve along the stamp pad too. I added a mauve organza ribbon to finish the card and added the thank you matte to the ribbon ends as a photo frame accent to the card.
