How I made my card:
1. Stamped the Penny Black Flower Stamp with Versamark Clear ink and then gave gold embossing powder and did heat it.
2. Colored with my new Akashiya SAI watercolor set I choose the similar one with Calypso Coral.
3. Die Cut the white and black paper with "post mark" DIES.
4. Stamped the sentiment from ALTENEW with black ink and cut it adhere with double side foam.
5. Adhere the white ppost mark on the top of the black post mark, that I can show a bit from the black cardstock behind the white one. Adhere all on a white cardstock.
I really love the gold so shiny on this card :)

I also made this card using the sketch from Catch the Bug Challenge, Stella Says Sketch:
My new manager in my office has birthday and I gave her my handmade card, she loves it and she like to order one for her mom`s birthday. The color should be purple and the main image should be flower. I choose Bugaboo Digi stamp and printed it on a white paper. Started to colored with purple Akashiya SAI watercolor pen. Adhere the flower embelishment to mimic the sketch and adhere the sentiment in German, means Best Wishes For Your Birthday.
Another photo of my card, the Design Paper is an old collection of mine and the flowers also from my stash.
